Devon Slow Food Market
Matthew’s Hall, Exeter, EX2 4QD Tel: +44 (0)7708 371862



Email: info@slowfooddevon.co.uk
Web: http://www.slowfood.org.uk

Devon’s only Slow Food market has moved to Topsham’s Matthew’s Hall after two years at Exeter Quay and changed its day of trading from Saturday to Sundays. The monthly market runs from 11am to 3pm with up to 20 local food and drink producers attending. Locally produced meats, cheeses, game, fish, fruit, vegetables, juices, cakes, preserves, and other produce from the around the region are on offer, with information about the Slow Food movement as well as advice from the producers and suppliers on how to make the most of what you buy. With the help of Marc Millon, food writer, fine wine importer and resident of Topsham, Slow Food Devon will run series of ‘Taste’ workshops at every market with guest products or themes, the aim being to inform people about the provenance and production method of particular consumables. In addition to the taste workshop another new innovation is an area for shoppers to take a break and enjoy some hot food or simply relax with a glass of wine, beer or cider. Younger visitors will be provided with a safe area for play and other activities to fill the time. Slow Food stands for good, clean and fair food. Slow Food believes that the food we eat should taste good; that it should be produced in a clean way that does not harm the environment, animal welfare or our health; and that food producers should receive fair compensation for their work. Slow Food is an international movement that aims to promote small or individual producers of artisan or special regional fare. For example in Devon you might find meat from traditional breeds like Ruby Red cattle, excellent farmhouse cheeses and clotted cream, locally brewed beer and, of course, cider. Small farmers or artisan producers often struggle to find viable outlets for their produce or to receive a fair return for their efforts, another aim of Slow Food.
