My whole business ethos echoes Slow Food’s ethic of Good, Clean and Fair, as we work with a local product, helping sustain traditional orchards, promoting old varieties otherwise lost.
Slow Food Business Supporters
Slow Food Ludlow Marches is supported by a range of businesses in the area, reflecting the rich variety of producers and outlets that have a Slow Food ethos at the core of their operations. Wanting to share and to support the Slow Food cause by engaging with the national and international network to achieve positive change in the food system.
In a normal year Slow Food Ludlow Marches works with these businesses to host events that open up networking opportunities and discussion and improve awareness. The pandemic brought sudden changes that impacted all businesses in 2020. Unable to work with our Business Supporters in the same way, we have, nevertheless been in touch to find out how they have been adapting and how they see the future shaping out. We are pleased to share the first of these Behind the Scenes Chats with you.
