This is an attempt to document my efforts to grow and eat locally around Melbourne, Derbyshire. My family own a nine acre smallholding on which we grow fruit and vegetables and keep bees, and chickens, but that won't feed us alone, so the idea is to get to know our local produce and to see how easy/hard it is to follow a diet that is local to within 30 miles. The fun part is also trying some new (easy) recipes that use home-grown and local produce. Feel free to comment, send in recipes, and share your experiences of buying and eating locally.

Roast lamb lunch
This was bought today at the East Midlands Food Fair at Melton Mowbray today, served with a delicious salsa. Unfortunately it was a bit greasy and so I went in search of a strong liqueur to act as a digestif.
