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.

Green map with filters / logos
This looks promising - a green google map with custom logos and a filter menu (rhs) to turn on and off layers of information. Possible to click on logos in filter menu to get a pop-up explanation (Thanks to James Brown)
I had no idea our work was being fought over... :)
I encourage you to play around with the Opengreenmap interface. This is true web convergence at work: wiki-style user-generated content and google maps. There are some bugs, notably we've found that individual markers on the map have to be marked as "public" before appearing on the public version of the map.
I have some doubts whether the green map should be used so liberally to highlight "blight sights" (such as neglected sites, overflowing bins etc) but the international standard of symbols seems pretty established and comprehensive.
Hope to see a Sheffield food map soon... with love from sunny Govanhill in Glasgow...
Glad you like it! James - hopefully I've fixed the bug you mentioned - when you add a marker to the map it should now default to being public. Let me know if you have any other suggested improvements.

Live projects are a leading educational initiative at the University of Sheffield School of Architecture. Architecture students work in groups on a 6 week Live Project with a range of clients including local community groups, charities, health organisations and regional authorities. In some cases the projects involve actual building, in others design of urban masterplans, in others consultation exercises. In every case, the project is real, happening in real time with real people.
