A delegation of crofters have recently returned from Arctic Sweden where they attended a celebration of indigenous food cultures from around the world.
The Indigenous ‘Terra Madre’ (Mother Earth) took place in Jokkmokk in Sweden over the midsummer weekend (17th to 19th June 2011). The gathering was hosted by the Sami people of Northern Europe and the Slow Food movement, which promotes food that is ‘good, clean and fair’.
