A two week celebration of food that is good for people, place and planet 24 May – 7 June 2026

Food Vale has launched the Vale Food Strategy 2025-2030 – a five-year plan to create a thriving, healthy, fair and sustainable local food system.

The award recognises Food Vale’s work to promote healthy, sustainable and local food and to tackle some of today’s greatest social challenges; from food poverty and diet-related ill-health to the struggles faced by local food producers and businesses and the decline in understanding of where our food comes from.

Over 30 guests gathered for the Vale Fairtrade Breakfast, hosted by Food Vale in partnership with local Fairtrade community groups.

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Good Practice Guide and Community Toolkit for Shared Community Kitchens —a brand-new guide designed to support organisations that are considering setting up or operating from a shared community kitchen.

Every few months, Food Vale hosts an event to bring people together around the common cause of healthy and sustainable food. To strengthen this, and to support on-the-ground work across the Vale, we are now looking for local groups, organisations and initiatives to collaborate with.

A new report and digital map have been launched following a study exploring the local needs associated with community food growing in the Vale.

Get Cooking course held at CF61 teaching healthy Welsh and British recipes!

Food Vale is running a Small Grants Scheme designed to support work around healthy and sustainable food aimed specifically to enable and amplify participation of members of groups with one or more Protected Characteristic.
