Opportunities for EVERYONE to make a little difference "Just Ask" "What's on your Plate"

If you need two more reasons to question the provenance of your food then join in on these campaigns and start to test everyone who serves food to you.

Please be kind - they may not have had the right training - but asking will highlight these issues and enable us all to make better informed choices about what we feed ourselves, our families and friends.

Have some fun - and let us know................ feedback@feastnet.net

For example if someone swears blind those strawberries are fresh and local - in January - they may be telling "porky pies".

One establishment when asked which FARM the bacon came from answered after several visits to the kitchen - "it's a farm nearby called 3663"
