Trying to be good

We try to be good at the Hungry Snail :-)

There are lots of arguments around food, what is good, and how good should we be as consumers. We think these arguments are important, but we don't want people to be stressed out when they come to buy from us - so we just try to be good.

What is being good? For us it includes:

• promoting local produce
• supporting healthy eating
• believing in organic & fair trade
• minimising waste
• minimising plastics and chemicals

All this does need to be balanced against value for money. We are not targeting people who can go out and make these choices at farmers' markets, but rather people who find it more difficult to get and cook vegetables and fruit.

All this will be thought out more thoroughly over the next few weeks and months. Please add comments or get in touch via our contact page.
