Through our free in-depth editorials, we're telling real stories of local producers and connecting them with passionate food lovers.

 

  • Free written editorial article

  • Long-term visibility to help new customers discover you for years to come

Why We Do It

Scotland is bursting with incredible food makers who deserve more than a rushed Instagram caption - you're the ones making recipes your granny would be proud of!
 

You deserve to have your story told. Not because it's trendy, but because it's true that the best food comes from people who care.
 

When someone reads your feature, they won't just discover the food you make. They'll discover you. And that's when customers become fans.

Here's What You Get (Completely Free)

Be Seen for Who You Truly Are

Receive a story-led editorial (around 1,000 words) that captures who you really are. All we need is a short questionnaire and a 30 minutes Zoom chat.

Reach the Right People

Your story shared across our platform, social media, and newsletter – getting in front of food lovers who value craft, quality, and the people behind it.

A Story That Works For You

Post it on your website, share it with customers, or just enjoy knowing that your story is out there in front of people who really care.
