Nourishing our communities, our health and our planet
Eastbourne Food Partnership brings together communities, individuals and organisations that are committed to creating a more equitable, sustainable and diverse food system in Eastbourne.
We believe that everyone in Eastbourne should be able to access sustainably produced and nutritious food, and participate in a vibrant and joyful local food culture.
What is a food partnership?
A food partnership is a group of stakeholders that come together around a common vision of creating a more sustainable and fair food system, joining the dots between food, health, communities, the environment and the economy.
