Buy British, Eat Fresher.Join The Local HarvestRevolution
We’re building The Local Harvest, a postcode-based UK farm directory, step one of a local-food marketplace from British farms.
Because good food shouldn’t travel thousands of miles to reach you.
Why UK FoodFeels Broken
It’s hard to feel good about food that feels disconnected from your values.
You’re craving freshness, local-produce, and authenticity—but often feel limited by what’s available.
40 % of all the food on UK plates is imported.
Domestic production covered 62% of supply in 2023, leaving the rest to overseas supply chains.
Input costs have exploded!
AHDB analysis shows overall farm input costs rose 44% between December 2019 and May 2024—with electricity, fertiliser, feed and fuel all up 38-50%.
British Farmers are getting pennies of profit.
A Sustain analysis of apples, cheese, beef burgers, carrots and bread found growers sometimes keep under 1% less than a penny of the final profit once intermediaries and supermarkets take their cut.
That’s exactly why we’re creating
The Local Harvest.
A platform designed to solve these exact problems and reconnect you with the fresh, local food you deserve.
Cut out the Middle Man,Fresh, Local British Grown Produce
The Local Harvest will be a vibrant online directory and marketplace connecting local consumers directly to British farmers, growers, and producers.
You’ll soon be able to:
Find local farms and markets in your area, conveniently online
Find fresh, seasonal produce from farms near you through our comprehensive online directory. Search by location, produce type, or farming practices.
💡 Browse hundreds of local farms, farmers markets, and producers all in one place.
Buy directly from local producers, for peak freshness and quality
Skip the middleman and connect directly with farmers. Get the freshest produce while supporting local businesses and knowing exactly where your food comes from.
💡 Direct purchasing means fair prices for you and better profits for farmers.
Feel good about sustainability, reducing your food's carbon footprint
Make environmentally conscious choices by choosing local produce. Reduce transportation emissions and support sustainable farming practices in your community.
💡 Choosing local, in-season produce instead of air-freighted imports can cut the transport part of your food’s carbon footprint by 90%.
Build real connections, knowing exactly who grows your food
Meet the farmers and producers behind your food. Build relationships, learn about growing practices, and become part of a thriving local food community.
💡 Connect with passionate growers who care about quality and sustainability.
