Multi Award Winners 2021!

Supporting Local
We are accredited by The New Forest Marque (the sign of true local produce) and proud members of Hampshire Fare - championing supporting local. For us, supporting small local businesses could not be more important, especially in current times. We have teamed up with some wonderful local suppliers and producers from local cheese makers, to local vineyards, fishermen, New Forest Commoners for free-range meat and an award winning, world class chocolatier, to name a few.
Sustainability
We aspire to work as sustainably and responsibly as we possibly can. Every purchase you make from us will be supporting a local farmer, grower, baker, cheese maker or craftsman. Where possible we use plant based packaging and our picnics are delivered in cardboard boxes with natural sheep's wool liners. By supporting us you will also be helping with the circular economy within the New Forest to make it a better, cleaner, more eco friendly place.
We are aspiring to be a B-Corp certified business in 2023.
We are small and nimble. Give us a shout if you have something specific in mind, we would love to help!

The Forest Foodie was born out of a passion for delicious and locally sourced food. In the New Forest, we are lucky to have some of the finest ingredients from land and sea, right on our doorstep and we wanted to share this love with all those visiting our uniquely special corner of England.
Whether you are coming by land to holiday cottages and glamping spots, or by sea to our world famous sailing town in Lymington, we can cater for you.
We are absolutely thrilled to have recently won not one, but two awards at The New Forest Business Partnerships Brilliance in Business Awards in December 2021:
Winner: The New Forest Marque Award for the Best Food & Drink Business 2021
Winner: The Solent LEP 'New Forest Business of the Year 2021
