Welcome to Bristol Friends of the Earth’s local food guide, which is now two guides in one: a Directory of where you can eat or buy local food in Bristol, and a new Guide to ‘Getting Going Growing’ your own local produce.
To find out where to buy local food, use the Directory menu on the right. You can view businesses by type (all restaurants and cafés) or by area (all local food businesses in Easton).
To find out how you can ‘Get Going Growing’, either browse the map below (best viewed at full screen), or use the ‘Guide to Getting Growing in Bristol’ to discover the project that suits you (menu on the right, under ‘About Local Food’).
