Event Description

Join us for an immersive food experience that invites you to taste, learn, and take part in shaping the future of Northern Ireland’s food system. A Taste for Change brings together local growers, producers, and innovators to explore how food connects health, the environment, and our economy, inspired by the NI Food Strategy Framework, we want to hear your thoughts.

Over three courses of conversation and discovery, you’ll hear real stories from those leading change in our food landscape — from small-scale growers to community champions to innovative producers. Together, we’ll explore how their work reflects the Framework’s missions: improving lifelong health and wellbeing, supporting sustainable supply chains, and building economic prosperity through food.

Enjoy locally sourced dishes prepared by a guest chef, each course designed to illustrate the Framework’s principles of food as nourishment, connection, and innovation. Between bites, take part in lively discussions and share your own food stories and pledges for a more sustainable food future.

This is more than a meal — it’s a conversation about how we can use food to transform health, climate, and community across Northern Ireland.
