One which supports people and planet and in particular is there to support a diversity of local food producers who's success is central to making the whole vision possible.It is a realisation of regenerative principles including circularity and interconnectivity being put in to practice to coordinate food supply in a far more forward thinking model.There's elements within this that I think could be of huge inspiration and relevance to other locations and sectors so I hope you'll pick up some ideas to mull over!
