Hi, I'm Eleanor, based in Taunton, Somerset, UK.
  The idea for this blog came from a Taunton Transition Town meeting. Talking about how to promote local and home grown produce.
   A diet based on local food was sugested, a small group met up and the idea for this was born!
   Essentially what we are trying to achieve is to promote local food in all it's forms. So we are hoping to have a list of things that are in season to forage, plant, harvest and buy. Plus what to preserve for winter and how to do it.
  Also we will have recipes using all these lovely locally produced things. Please feel free to send me any of your favourite recipes, esspecially any that are child friendly.
   Every month we'll have a little friendly competition, publishing some recipes to see how many of the ingredients you can source locally to you. Anyone can join in! Just see how low you can go(for food miles that is!)
