sustainable food

 Abstract: The strongest global food trends are eating food that is sustainable, local and preferably organic. This means that establishing food provenance - the connection between the food producers and their place, or “terroir” to use a wine term, is becoming increasingly important.These food producers are the real artisans (and the future stars of New Zealand’s food industry). While they are growing in number in NZ, they struggle to thrive because of lack of business skills, resources, and support networks and infrastructure.
