About the Venue

Food from a Farm, Not a Factory

Food transport is responsible for 25% of HGV journeys on our congested roads. Ingredients used in the food processing industry travel around the country from factory to factory before reaching the shops. The George & Dragon tries at all times to buy food that is seasonal, local, organic, GM Free & Free Range. No farmed fish or intensive production is used. www.speldhurst.com
