The Food Museum’s mission is to connect people with where their food comes from and the impact of our choices, working towards a more sustainable world. CPRE, The Countryside Charity, is a charitable organisation which promotes an array of policies that are centric to the countryside advocating nationwide for the kind of countryside we all want: one with sustainable, healthy communities and available to more people than ever, including those who haven’t benefited before.
