About This Live Project v.2.1

The Sheffield Food Network is an organisation that promotes and celebrates the growing, sourcing and eating of local food in Sheffield. It serves the people of Sheffield though an online interface, as an online guide to everything and anything to do with sustainable food in Sheffield.

Firstly the Sheffield Food Network links sustainable food outlets, producers and restaurants to the people of Sheffield, but aims to extend this relationship by sharing ideas about growing fruit and vegetables, butchery, baking, local recipes, how to forage for wild food, and much more.

The Sheffield Food Network continues the exchange of information started by Grow Sheffield and Abundance Sheffield with the overall long term aim of creating an open social network, connecting people who have an interest in sharing Sheffield’s sustainable food resources. 

If you have arrived here on a recommendation or through personal interest, we invite you to contribute to the ongoing discussions.

Event Ideas - 'A Moveable Feast'

An event held at The Laguna Playhouse in California which held an event called the 'moveable feast' structuring it around acts - a course in a different place like a food trail but 'feast-like'. I thought this could be an interesting idea if combined with encouraging local restaurants to offer one locally produced a dish. Could provoke some good discussions about food and about people's perception of the term local.

I work for The Laguna Playhouse and was at A Moveable Feast. I love your idea of having restaurants prepare a "local" dish. I'm going to suggest this for next year. One challenge-since we're at the beach, seafood is a logical local choice, but a majority of our guests chose restaurants that offered beef dishes. Perhaps a "surf and turf" theme might be intriguing.
