Welcome to the Dales Festival of Food and Drink
"It is great to see the Yorkshire Dales community coming together at the Dales Festival of Food and Drink showing the world the fantastic quality and variety of food the Dales produces. Food and food production impacts on so many areas of our lives; from the environment to health and the climate. This is an excellent opportunity for people to reconnect with where and how their food is produced and how its production has shaped and maintains the beautiful Dales landscape. I hope the event is a big success this year and for many years to come."
- Rt Hon Rosie Winterton MP, Minister for Yorkshire and the Humber
