New UK Consumer Magazine Launched for the Farmers' Markets

NEW monthly FOOD MAGAZINE urges consumers to SHOP at their local farmers’ market. Have you ever wanted to find out where your nearest farmers’ market is based? What day a foody event is happening? Who’s behind that regional speciality? Or how to order from a box scheme? Well, now at last you can with FreeRange Magazine.

(PRWEB) January 20, 2006

FreeRange Magazine is dedicated to regional produce from local people – and is the essential magazine for market reviews, features and recipes from the producers, a comprehensive A to Z list of over 500 farmers’ markets in the UK, detailed information on food events in the UK and interviews with the real heroes of Britain’s food and farming industries, artisan producers and people passionate about quality.

Contributors and supporters of the magazine include: Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Antony Worrall Thompson, Sophie Grigson, Nick Nairn, Henrietta Green and Mary Contini, amongst others.

Re-learn how to eat.

Filling a genuine gap in the market, FreeRange is aimed at the growing number of shoppers who want to know where their food has come from, and it’s encouraging everyone to ‘re-learn how to eat’ by seeking out shops and delis selling local produce and the growing number of farmers’ markets, or ordering from box schemes – rather than heading without thought to the nearest homogeneous supermarket.

FreeRange is available on subscription by calling 01778 392 465, and will be available at all Borders Stores, and selected Co-op stores, independent regional newsagents, selected WH Smiths, at farmers’ markets, farm shops, garden centres and speciality food shops across the UK.

DO YOU KNOW of a great producer, shop, market or box scheme in you area? If yes, give FreeRange a call on 01604 700 652 or email. Or perhaps you are one of the above and would like to advertise your business in FreeRange? If so, call 0131 556 2220.
