Our produce is available in a number of local food outlets and van sales throughout Moray. The base and shop in Mosstodloch is accessible by the local community and anyone traveling along the A96 between Aberdeen and Inverness.
CFM was founded in March 2011 led by Jo Roberts the Development Manager/Nutritionist and a group of committed volunteers, following a pilot year under a parent organisation from Aberdeen. Their determination and vision has enabled CFM to sustain and grow its developments for the social, health and well-being needs of Moray.
We are available to deliver presentations, talks, workshops and food tasting sessions for businesses, organisations, community groups and schools on healthy eating and the services of Community Food Moray.

Why?
Every pound spent with us stays in Moray and all profits are reinvested into supporting local communities.
The products are low cost all year round, we do not use marketing gimics to manipulate customers. It does not matter if you only purchase one apple or 2 Kg our prices remain competitive.
You only need to purchase the amounts you need in order to save money rather than the usual buy one get one free so you are also helping to reduce food waste too.
Our friendly volunteers provide an individual service in the shop and outlets
You are contributing to the Moray community, economy and supporting local farms, growers, suppliers and volunteers.
