Welcome to the Dean Forest Food Hub!

The Dean Forest Food Hub is like an online farmers market. Customers can order produce from the Forest of Dean area on a weekly basis, knowing they are getting high quality food, supporting local businesses, and cutting down on their food miles. Producers receive their orders weekly, so they can harvest or bake to order, cutting down on wastage. Our goal is to ensure that everyone in the Forest of Dean can access affordable local produce that is fair for the producer as well.

We are in the process of opening up again to new members, but we will still restrict the number of orders we accept each week to reflect the capacity of our producers and our system to maintain a reliable service. Sorry if you don’t get in when you’d like.

We’d still remind you to order responsibly, and not to order more food than you need. Food waste is a huge problem in the UK and we don’t want to be adding to it.

For customers

– the fair place to buy local produce

We now deliver 2 days a week!

We need to send you to a new web page that lets you decide whether you will join the Wednesday hub – mostly the south west side of the Forest – or the Friday hub – the northern & eastern side. The two hubs have some different producers, too.
