Food and Farming
"He was a bold man who first ate an oyster". Jonathan Swift
We are very fortunate to live in a part of the country where much good food is produced. It is vital for the future that we connect with local farmers and distributors to form a direct supply chain wherever possible.
We hope to help this process with the information and links which will be a growing part of the site!
“In My Back Yard is an online farmers’ market for local, ethical food and products from Devon, Dorset and Somerset.
Shop locally online, then collect on Fridays from your nearest collection point.
We have set up a volunteer-led buddy scheme for customers who are vulnerable or experience difficulties getting to our collection points.”

“Fighting waste. Saving the planet. One meal at a time.
Working with local stores in East Devon, we save perfectly good, in-date food from going to waste and distribute to the community to be enjoyed.”
We maintain a list of raw milk / unpasteurised milk suppliers in the UK and Ireland.
Did you know more and more British farmers are now selling some, or all, of the food they lovingly produce straight from their farms?
You can find hundreds of producers on our website offering meat, milk, dairy products, poultry, eggs, fruit and veg, honey, preserves and non-food products.
Visit a farm to collect, or order online for delivery to your home. Get searching for farms near you now!
