Good Food Jobs & Opportunities Update: March 2026

Welcome to March’s Bristol Good Food 2030 Jobs & Opportunities Update.

• championing the use of local, independent food shops and traders to help keep Bristol’s high street vibrant and diverse.
• promoting and encouraging the use of good-quality land in and around Bristol for food production.
• promoting and encouraging the redistribution, recycling and composting of food waste.
• advancing education about the part that food, nutrition and lifestyle can play in meeting the needs of disadvantaged individuals, families and groups in the community, and encouraging social inclusion and social cohesion.
