The artisan producers have created a Food & Drink map of Northern Ireland

February is ‘Love Local’ Month! – Which artisan producers are local to you?

Here in NI we have world class artisan food and drink producers creating unique, high quality, tasty products right on your doorstep, usually with ingredients sourced from the land and sea in your neighbourhood. But do you know who we are and what we produce?

#artisanNI is a crowd-sourced collaborative cluster group of the 100 or so artisan producers of NI. We have created a map showing who we are, where we are and what we do. We’d love you to check out which of us is local to you and to try our produce. And if you see us at one of the events, a show or in the street, stop by and say ‘hello’!

#artisanNI | March | Heritage & Traditions

Many of us produce recipes passed down through generations. Most of us use traditional techniques or work with

traditional ingredients to create our cultural food heritage, such as wheaten, sodas, cheeses, chocolate.

#artisanNI | April | Brewing & Distilling

NI has world class craft beers, ciders and spirits. For April we are on the lookout for the best #Nicocktail made from

local ingredients and the artisans have created a mix and match of the best food to go with the drinks.
