More than 150 shops, pubs, and restaurants across Sussex have pledged to support local food producers as part of the Sussex Six Campaign
The initiative, launched by Natural Partnerships CIC and supported by local councils, encourages hospitality and retail businesses to stock and promote at least six more locally sourced products on their menus and shelves.
Key Campaign Details
- The Pledge: Participating businesses commit to adding six new Sussex-made food or drink items to their offerings within the coming year.
- Purpose: The drive aims to boost the local economy, support small-scale producers, and improve sustainability by reducing "food miles".

Participating Businesses
- Wealden (24+ Businesses): Includes Gun Brewery, Isfield Farm Shop, The Royal Oak and Castle, Shearers Fine Food, South Brockwells Farm Shop, Tottingworth Farm Shop and Café, The Highland Inn, and Vine and Din
