Local food web provides a search engine service for buying and selling locally produced food products by area, throughout the untire UK. you simply log on and search for your location and it gives you a list of local producers and suppliers.
http://www.localfoodweb.co.uk review of nation local food initiative:
The emphasis for Local Food Web is on businesses that sell directly to the consumer. We don't have any plans to extend beyond that for the time being, though it's something we might be able to consider in the future.
the web site advertises on Google, though the recommendations do play an important part in spreading the word.
People register themselves and so we do not keep a separate database.
We don't receive, nor have we sought, financial support from institutions. I'm sure we might have been able to attract some but Local Food Web is a purely commercial venture - though labour of love might be a more accurate description!
Enjoy
