This program looks at where our food originates, examining what we can grow in the UK and when. The issue of 'food miles' is debated in terms of how it affects the planet, impacting on our food carbon footprint and influencing consumer decision-making. The emerging need for 'food security' is analyzed in the wake of increasing costs and depleting supplies, and interviews are given by a range of people involved in growing and consuming food, and making decisions about where our food comes from.
