The Good Food Nation (Scotland) Act 2022 placed a duty on the Scottish Government and certain public bodies, including the local authority and health board, to produce a Good Food Nation plan. Public bodies must report progress every 2 years and review the plan every 5 years. Once the relevant provisions of the Good Food Nation (Scotland) Act requiring relevant authorities to publish a good food nation plan have been commenced we will use the Food4Fife strategy as a valuable first step towards producing our own good food nation plan.
To transform Fife’s food system into one that is healthy and sustainable, Fife needs a joined-up strategic approach and committed long-term collaboration. This needs to happen between individuals and organisations across every sector and at every level; from community grassroots and third sector organisations to businesses and council leaders.
The Food4Fife Partnership are working with Nourish Scotland and the Fork to Farm dialogues. These dialogues bring Fife farmers, members of the National Farmers Union and Food4Fife members together to build a platform for learning, knowledge-sharing, and opportunities.
They are held monthly. To join these dialogues please contact Carolynm.bell@fife.gov.uk
Nourish Scotland is a charity focusing on food policy and practice. Nourish and the National Farmers Union recently published a report on Farming for 1.5 degrees which sets out suggested stages and lists several approaches to meeting the ambitious target of the Scottish Government to reach zero-Carbon by 2045.
Joining a local group taking action on climate change can bring about the biggest impacts. Some local groups are listed below. All these groups belong to a network of groups called Fife Communiities Climate Action Network (FCCAN)
