FoodLink NE Project: Developing Stronger Links between Local Food and Local People

NESCAN Hub

FoodLink NE aims to improve access to local food grown, reared, produced, or made in Aberdeen City and Shire by supporting those who create it, strengthening direct connections between producers and customers, and utilizing the shortest possible supply chains. By doing so, we strive to achieve significant social, economic, and environmental benefits.

You can read the Phase 1 Final Report of of ‘A Study to Assess the Feasibility of Improving the Local Food Network in Aberdeen City and Shire’ on The Mixing Bowl.

A passionate team of local growers and partners are leading this exciting project as a collaboration between The James Hutton Institute, Fair Food Aberdeenshire, NESCAN, members of The Landworkers Alliance, and The Mixing Bowl Aberdeen.  The project  began with a comprehensive feasibility study.

The Foodlink NE team is eager to collaborate with farmers, producers, makers and

independent retailers in the area.  Your insights and experiences are invaluable to us.  In addition, we welcome contact from individuals and communities passionate about forging stronger connections with local producers and encourage you to get in touch.

Get involved and be part of this exciting movement towards a more sustainable and resilient local food system.

We look forward to hearing from you.  Please email foodlinkne@gmail.com if you would like to contribute to the project, or subscribe HERE to stay up to date with the project’s progress.
