FOOD DIRECTORY

The food we eat and the way it’s grown or produced, shipped, and sold have huge effects on the planet. Trying to eat and consume more sustainably needn’t necessarily be as complicated and expensive as you might fear.

Crowborough is in the fortunate position of having many high-quality producers of food and drink in the locality. In our directory, we have tried to identify as many local food and drink producers as possible. Every producer listed is within a roughly 10-mile radius of Crowborough.

Have we missed any local food heroes? Let us know!
