Scots encouraged to visit farms and buy local during their staycations
By Gemma Mackie
The campaign encourages people to seek out local food and visit farms during their staycations.
Scots are being encouraged to visit farms and buy local food during their summer staycations this year as part of a new campaign.
Red meat levy body Quality Meat Scotland (QMS) has teamed up with Scottish Agritourism and VisitScotland to encourage people to visit farms and crofts for day trips or their holidays, and to buy local food and drink including Scotch Beef and Scotch Lamb.
The six-week campaign, run under the Go Rural brand, will encourage travellers to try out agritourism, support local businesses and enjoy Scottish produce.
