Our aim is to bring people in and around Northallerton closer to the food that is produced on their doorstep. It's a great opportunity to celebrate local food and to meet the people who produce it. There is a lot on offer at each festival - take part in cookery workshops and activities, watch renowned local chefs work their magic, learn how to grow your own vegetables and relax and listen to great live music.
