What is Sustainable food? Sustainability means making sure there is enough supply of food by replacing (growing or farming) at least as much as is used. Calcium

Thinking about the future? Another way to think about sustainability is that it is a way to preserve the world’s natural resources for future generations. This might mean leaving some fish in the sea to reproduce – rather than fishing them all at once. Calcium

What is Seasonality? Seasonality means eating local foods that are in season rather than buying foods imported from other countries. This benefits the environment and the local economy.

Seasonal foods in the U.K

Food Miles Food miles are a way of attempting to measure how far food has travelled before it reaches the consumer. It is a good way of looking at the environmental impact of foods and their ingredients.

Organic food Organic food is the product of a farming system which avoids the use of man- made fertilisers, pesticides; growth regulators and livestock feed additives.

Genetically Modified Food Genetically modified foods have had their DNA altered so that they are better in some way (like being resistant to diseases). Some people don’t agree with this.

Free Range Free range means meat or animal products that has been farmed to a specific set of standards which include letting the animals roam outside or in less cramped conditions.

Farm Assured Assured Food Standards is a British organisation that promotes and regulates food quality. The Red Tractor quality mark means that a foods have been farmed to a set of quality rules about animal welfare/feed and fertilizer for crops.

Nano Foods Nano foods are when nanoparticles, nanotechnology techniques or tools are used during; Cultivation, Production, Processing Packaging of the food.
