Local Food Gatherings

Thank You!

Did you join us in Annan, Thornhill, Castle Douglas or Stranraer this year for a Local Food Gathering?

Across the 4 events, 104 people took part in the  Good Food Conversation


We heard from inspiring speakers at every event, shared fantastic food, and had some great conversations with real, tangible actions to take forward. We're still analysing the results of discussions, but reports will appear here over the coming weeks. Watch this space! In the meantime check out the photos and presentations below.
