Interactive Food Map of Ireland

Paul O Mahony of Siopa Eile has launched the Interactive Food Map of Ireland. It's a brilliant idea for both producers and consumers. If you wish to locate an artisan made food product zoom into the area in question and click on the pointers to read contact information and product descriptions. Anybody can add or amend information on the map so if you are a producer go ahead and add your details, or if you know of a producer who isn't on the map please and add them. The success of the map depends on it's users adding information so don't be shy, jump in and help to make it a fantastic resource ... and don't worry you can't break it either!

What better way could there possibly be to start International Downshifting Week than to support a local food artisan in your area.

Spread the word. If you're an Irish blogger add the badge.

Thanks for the link Rebecca; I've already put the badge up on my blog and added a few local suppliers/producers. This is going to open many doors for all the organic food people in this country. Paul's done an amazing job at producing this and he's to be congratulated.
Keep up the good work!

Thank's for the link Rebecca, will check that out.

Thanks Rebecca! 32,000 views so far on google, which is amazing. Yes, I would emphasise that its not just a resource, but that people can very easily add to it. Video of 'how to' is available on my blog at the link you gave.

Should have some further interesting news in relation to this next month.
