Find Local Food
Explore our local food
The sunshine coast offers an array of opportunities to grow, purchase or sell healthy local food.
Taking part in the local food system makes everyone healthier and richer.
- Purchasing locally not only supports the local economy, it supports the local environment by decreasing transportation, packaging and refrigeration needs.
- Local food can have up to 10 times higher nutrient density that imported food and it also has a longer shelf life after purchase.
- Purchasing direct from your farmer can increase levels of connection and wellbeing as well as increase your say in what food is grown and available to you.
The benefits are endless!
