Somerset Local Food Direct
We started in 2002, working with Somerset Farmers Markets, as a way of making local produce available to everyone in the county.
Our ethos is to bring top quality local produce to the door of local customers in the most direct way possible, via our website: www.localfooddirect.co.uk
We think it important that:
- You need know where your food comes from, who produced it, how they do it, and what is in it
- We use a minimum of packaging
- We minimise food miles
- We give preference to food produced in Somerset
- Items sourced from further afield will often be Fairtrade and/or organic
On Tuesday morning we collate all of our customers orders and contact our "family" of suppliers to set in motion the gathering together of your order to be boxed up and delivered to your door on Thursday or Friday, in time for the weekend.
We are not a faceless organisation only interested in your cash. There is always a friendly and helpful voice at the end of the phone, should you need to contact us and you will probably build up a good working relationship with your regular driver who will happily help you unpack your box at the time of delivery should you so wish. Yes of course we are a business but we would like to think that we offer a friendly and ethically sound service that helps the Somerset community thrive.
