Zero Food Miles

Posted on Sun 14 February 2010 by alex in general

We currently have 3 large Geese hanging up in our garage. They were locally sourced (from next door) and are slow grown organically fed birds. The only real downside of all this direct food supply is the requirement to pluck and draw them before we can eat them. We are taking them with us to the peaks next weekend for Sunday lunch for a small multitude. This will technically increase the food miles they have travelled, but at least they will be direct food miles rather than bouncing from farm to distribution centre before ending up on the plate.
