Middlesbrough Environment City

The changing face of food culture in Middlesbrough - Middlesbrough Food Summit, 15th November 2017
The past few years have seen significant and radical changes to Middlesbrough’s food culture. The town now boasts not only a vibrant food nightlife with a resurgence of high quality local independent restaurants, cafes and bars, but a thriving movement of local and sustainable food procurement, helping the town become a place where local people can eat good quality, healthy food that is easy to buy, offers value for money and is produced locally wherever possible.
Middlesbrough’s Food Partnership is holding a Food Summit on Wednesday 15th November 2017 to celebrate these achievements, to provide replicable best practice and disseminate its strategic vision.
There will be inspirational talks by keynote and national guest speakers, including Prof. Martin Caraher, Centre for Food Policy, City University London, and the effervescent Pam Warhurst, founding member of Incredible Edibles. You will also hear from Teesside’s food heroes – those inspirational people that are changing the face of Middlesbrough’s food culture, who are leading the way and putting the town on the map.
What else is happening?
~ Taste some of the fantastic produce the region has to offer at the Meet the Producer event, and find a new local supplier for your business event  ~ Workshops on replicable best practice – hear about how local businesses are making a big difference and pick their brains on how to do it yourself and avoid potential pitfalls ~ A guided walk-through tour of Middlesbrough new food quarter and tasting some of their local delights ~ Site visit to Warrens Group’s (a local food business champion) anaerobic digestion plant
