EAT The Lizard – community survey
The Lizard has an abundance of food grown, reared, produced or caught here. But most of it is transported off the peninsula to be sold elsewhere. At the same time, most people drive to the supermarkets in Helston to shop – buying food produced and shipped in from all over the UK and the world.
Very few farmers on The Lizard grow food that is sold locally. Most of it is sold to either supermarkets or companies who supply supermarkets. This puts pressure on the farmers, as they're forced into selling for lower prices that can make it hard to cover their costs of production, as well as increasing food miles and the associated fuel costs, packaging, carbon footprint and inefficiency.
Through Wildlife Groundswell, a few local people are keen to see if we can do anything about this – and if there's local appetite for easier ways to buy directly from farmers, growers, fishers and other local food producers, while maintaining or increasing existing trade in The Lizard's local shops.
We'd like to arrange a community gathering to discuss how this might happen, in a way that works for our communities and food producers.
We'd be grateful if you can answer this short survey to help us gauge the level of interest in taking this forward.
It will take you less than 5 minutes 😁Please follow this link to complete the survey https://forms.gle/BwM7uyZv5UPh47HSA
