Cornish food

Cornish food

From the centuries-old pasty that’s known worldwide, to the cheesemakers turning whey into baby formula, the sustainable seafood fisheries and merchants putting ocean health first to the next generation farmers seeding a sustainable soil future, Cornish food and drink is worth celebrating for more than its taste. The tradition, innovation, fresh thinking and principles behind our produce are putting Cornwall on the map, all made possible by people, place and perspective.

Evolving tradition

Cornwall’s strong food reputation has deep roots. But it’s been our ability to evolve and continually grow that has seen tradition transform into an ecosystem with longevity and resilience.

Future farming

Cornwall’s farming community is changing. With a challenge-busting mindset and an injection of fresh energy, farmsers today are looking at how to shape a sustainable, purposeful future for the industry here.

Sustainable seas

Seafood is also one of the cornerstones of Cornwall’s culinary reputation. The colossal variety of fish and shellfish caught from our shores has led to a vibrant mixed fishery, supporting bigger vessels as well as the largest fleet of small fishing boats in Britain.

Innovation

At the end of the line and at the whim of Atlantic, life here can be challenging. But it’s also one of the reasons Cornwall fosters entrepreneurial spirit so well, turning barriers into springboards, cultivating new ideas and getting creative with what’s on the doorstep.
