Frome food network
Building awareness of food sustainability and the local food
A collective of 160+ people, businesses, and organisations local to the area, the Frome Food Network (FFN) facilitates collaborative action among its members towards a more vibrant and sustainable Food Town.
FFN members are involved in just about every angle of the local food environment – from growers, farmers and processors, through to restaurateurs, retailers, writers and policy informers.

Canteen Frome
Canteen – familiar food, delicious food, eaten with your neighbours, locally sourced. And it’s accessible and affordable to all through the invitation to pay it forward / pay what it costs to make / eat for free.
FFN hosts a Long Table-style series of pop-up events in Frome coming up in October and November 2024.
The Frome Food Network was born out of partnership working between Edventure’s Future Shed, Frome Town Council and the local community. Read Frome Town Council’s commissioned report ‘Who Feeds Frome?’
