Good food should be produced, processed, distributed and disposed of in ways that are healthy, fair and sustainable. This page provides details and links to find out more about our approach.
Our working definition for of 'good food' is food from systems that:
- Contribute to thriving local economies and sustainable livelihoods - both in the UK and, in the case of imported products, in producer countries;
- Protect the diversity of both plants and animals and the welfare of farmed and wild species,
- Avoid damaging or wasting natural resources or contributing to climate change;
- Provide social benefits, such as good quality food, safe and healthy products, and educational opportunities.
