Ready to share your local produce with the county?! If you are a Dorset-based farmer, grower, fisherman, or food or drink producer, this year’s Love Local Trust Local Food & Drink Awards are now open for entries!
What is Love Local Trust Local?
Love Local Trust Local was founded by fifth generation farming family, the Cossins’ in Tarrant Valley. Founder Barbara Cossins is passionate that farmers are represented. The label plans to educate the consumers on how to trust food labelling, where to look, what it all really means and why shopping local matters.
Created by farmers and producers, for farmers and producers, what sets these awards apart is that they are designed purely to celebrate the work that goes into our local food production!
The Awards
The second year of the Love Local Trust Local Food & Drinks Awards features 12 categories, with a total of 18 awards for the taking! From categories such as bakery, meat, fish and suchlike, through to conservation and sustainability, and innovation and diversification there is ample chance to get recognised.

This is a chance for Dorset food and drink producers to really shout about what you do, why you do it and how you do it!
