The authors of this invaluable and much-needed guide have a passion for fresh locally-produced food. They share this passion through a series of food trails taking in each of the major dales and including establishments as diverse as farm shops, wine makers, an ice cream parlour and a smokehouse. Placing the emphasis firmly on people, there are profiles of producers committed to fare ranging from organically reared beef to "the world's finest jams and chutneys"! Details of farmers' markets and a selection of regional recipes complete the text. The foreword is by the celebrity chef James Martin.
