Scotland's Food Podcast, Nibble Scotland is our opportunity to get out and about to meet the food champions around the country. Travel the country with me to hear inspiring stories direct from the producers, learn how they got started, some of their challenges and aspirations for the future. Scotland's larder is packed with fascinating people and we are privileged to have so many world class producers on our doorstep. As a nation we need to support a more sustainable environment by lessening our food miles, shopping locally, appreciating the expertise involved in producing our food and even considering the seasonality of our menus. If you enjoy food and people this is the podcast for you. Join our Instagram community @NibbleScotland and if you have any questions, feedback or would like to get involved please email us at [email protected]
