South Gloucestershire Cross Sector Food Partnership

The South Gloucestershire Cross Sector Food Partnership - We are a cross-sector food partnership with representation from organisations and businesses across the South Gloucestershire area including South Gloucestershire Council. Our Vision: A sustainable, equitable, thriving, and resilient food system in South Gloucestershire which supports and enables improved outcomes for public health, the environment and economy. Building on food work that has happened and is ongoing in pockets across the area, we realised that a coordinated approach was missing, particularly in light of growing global, national, and local pressures on our food system. 

Our partnership members include:

  • Frome Valley Growing Project
  • Sims Hill Shared Harvest / Basic Income for Farmers
  • South Glos. Race Equality Network (SGREN)
  • We Are BS15
  • Forbidden Fruit and Veg
  • Hobbs House Bakery
  • Mamas Bristol CIC
  • One Planet Matters CIC
  • North Bristol & South Gloucestershire Foodbank
  • Cook Stars South Gloucestershire ltd
  • Emersons Green Town Council
  • Marshfield Traditional Farm
  • Creative Youth Network
  • Thornbury Community Permaculture Project
  • Sustainable Thornbury Grow Your Own Food Group (GYOF)
  • Visit West
  • South Gloucestershire Council

What we do

We are in the process of developing our partnership action plan for the South Gloucestershire area. In June 2025 we published our report Food Across South Gloucestershire and online Map. In 2026 we will be working on our action plan.
