Running from September 19 to October 4, British Food Fortnight is all about celebrating everything that’s great about British food.

East Lindsey District Council have worked with their market traders to offer up some delicious discounts, with nine traders taking part to serve up some special offers during the fortnight.

The vouchers will be available from the participating traders at Louth, Horncastle and Spilsby Markets and will also be provided in the Louth and Mablethorpe Leaders, Horncastle News and Skegness and Spilsby Standards in this week's editions - out on Wednesday, September 16

As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, many of the market traders have also begun offering a home delivery service, so even if you’re unable to get down to your local market, you can still support local produce this British Food Fortnight!.

Full details of all those offering a delivery service are available online at www.e-lindsey.gov.uk/FoodTradersFood businesses that haven’t traded at the District Council’s markets before are also being encouraged to trial a free stall at one of ELDC markets during the fortnight.

Anyone interested in taking up the free stall offer should complete an application form, which is available at: www.e-lindsey.gov.uk/NewTraderOffersPortfolio Holder for Market Towns and Rural Economy, Councillor Adam Grist, said: “British Food Fortnight is always a fantastic opportunity to celebrate our local food and drink producers and as a District we’re home to some really wonderful businesses.

Supporting these businesses and supporting your local market is more important than ever before, and I’m delighted to see our market traders helping out by putting on some fantastic offers.”
