Putting the Peak District on the menu

The University of Derby College, Buxton, is leading a new project called Peak District Cuisine, which aims to encourage the use of local produce in restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and pubs in the Peak District. The project is about using local produce to create new, innovative or traditional menus.

There are already many companies in the area that use local produce, but their customers are not aware of it. We are developing a Peak District Cuisine brand as part of the project, which participating restaurants, hotels, guesthouse and pubs can display on their menus to let customers know that they are proud to use local produce.
