Making a Beautiful Healthy Herefordshire!

Buy Herefordshire Food Direct:

Support farms producing brilliant food in Herefordshire that's building nature through:

  • Reducing the number of animals
  • Using grazing methods that improve the soil and capture carbon
  • Using pasture for feed and avoiding monocrop imports
  • Selling direct and avoiding unnecessary transport
  • Building production of plant based foods using mixed farming methods

 We've produced a map of good food that you can buy direct, or with a very short supply chain, here in Herefordshire. 

More about 'good' food and farming below the map.

The map also shows community food and food growing projects.
