food and farming
SBCAN supports approaches to food that are good for the producers, consumers and the planet. From local growing projects to climate-friendly food systems, we aim to connect and empower groups & farmers across the Scottish Borders working towards a fairer, healthier, and more sustainable future.

Borders Farming for 2045 wants farming in the Scottish Borders to be part of a resilient and sustainable food system that contributes to society’s climate, nature and health ambitions, in ways that are financially profitable, socially and culturally rewarding, and build on farmers’ experiences and knowledge, in dialogue with the public.
