Manx produce at Christmas
At its heart, eating local means celebrating that the best flavours are from home; treat your taste buds and nourish your local community with a sustainable Manx Christmas full of local food and drink.
Did you know that every £1 spent on Manx food is worth £1.83 to the Manx economy, versus 58p with a non-local business? Whilst we recognise that the cost of living is increasing rapidly we would urge everyone to try to put at least one locally grown or produced product in their basket when they go shopping. These small considerations can have a big cumulative community effect.
In collaboration with local producers, we are delighted to showcase our Manx Produce at Christmas webpage, great gifts for your family or friends this holiday season, and lovely presents for those off-Island to enjoy Manx food and drink.
