A bit about us

The Homegrown Food Group is a small team of 
dedicated volunteers from Northallerton who love good food and our town.  We organised the first ever Homegrown Food Festival in June 2012 which proved a
roaring success and inspired us to keep going.

If you are interested in being involved please get in touch.

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.
