Shop local!

Northumberland County Council’s scheme to promote food and drink produced in our county- Produced in Northumberland- has reached a fantastic milestone after gaining its 100th member. Grannies Tearoom and Delicatessen in Alnwick has become the 100th business to sign up to the scheme, thanks to its brilliant range of locally produced products. The scheme was launched in 2015 to verify that food and drink products have been produced locally, and has proved to be a great boost to our local economy.

There is such a variety of food and drink produced in Northumberland and I am a great admirer of the Produced in Northumberland scheme which celebrates our local food and drink industry. As always I would encourage you to support your local businesses by shopping locally.
