Every year, thousands of visitors fall in love with South Devon and its mild microclimate, acres of unspoilt farmland and clear blue sea. But the region’s unique natural environment provides us with more than just beautiful views: its fertile fields and productive fishing waters are also the source of a growing food economy.
From unique brands like the South Devon Chilli Farm to renowned restaurants like Mitch Tonks’ The Seahorse, the variety and vibrancy of our food economy are as much a part of the region’s charm as our sunshine and sandy beaches.
