From Rose Prince:
‘For me, The Good Produce Guide is the antidote to the tedious weekly trawl for food with a trolley - I want to introduce readers to shops that are both remarkable for innovation and tradition, markets that are vibrant and a thousand characters who are passionate about the food they sell. Readers should be able to pick up the guide, wherever they are in the UK, and find a good butcher selling naturally reared, native bred beef, or sustainably caught fish - a pick-your-own or a great farm shop. We are discovering real shopping again at last - this is the guide to make that happen. I want you to love reading it as much as I have enjoyed finding the entries.’
