About Us

Dorset is brimming with the finest, most mouthwatering and gorgeous food, drink and crafts in the country. We are incredibly lucky to have such a fantastic choice of high quality local products which are truly ‘home grown’. We believe that products grown in the soil of Dorset are particularly special and we think that they deserve extra recognition and promotion. Direct from Dorset is a brand which highlights these special products made using raw materials directly linked to the soil of Dorset. Buying these products supports those producers that are farming the beautiful Dorset countryside and looking after it for future generations.

Producers who meet our criteria can join as Full Members and display the distinctive Direct from Dorset logo on their products. Hotels, restaurants, shops, galleries, pubs – in fact anyone who sells or serves a range of Direct from Dorset accredited products are also eligible to join as Associate Members and will proudly display the logo too. This means that you can easily identify businesses where you can enjoy fabulous local foods and local products.
