Colne Valley Food

A farmer sells his produce at an event at the Visitors' Centre 

Colne Valley Food is a social enterprise which is developing a box scheme in an area of London's urban fringe.

The project will explore ways of engaging people with their food primarily through recreational activities at the Colne Valley Park Visitors' Centre. The Centre will become a collection point for the box scheme and produce from the scheme will be sold at the events held at the Centre.  

The scheme will explore how Visitors' Centres can play an active role in re-engaging people with their food and in supporting local producers.

The project joined the Making Local Food Work programme in October 2009.
