Simply browse through our listings or Peak Food to find the best butchers, bakers, confectioners, caterers, producers and retailers. We can even provide you with a few traditional recipes to test your culinary skills. Peak Food includes meat from cattle and sheep which have grazed on limestone pasture or heather-clad moors and drunk from springs or streams of crystal clear water, rich in natural minerals which has permeated down from the highest peaks so good that it's bottled and sold all around the country. Peak District folk enjoy quality food and home-made produce including pasties, pies, puddings and pastries with recipes handed down through the centuries offering traditional good fare.

Peak District meat is a valuable ingredient of Peak Foods, and you may well see displays of beef from Highland cattle, rare breed lamb, pork and poultry alongside the more traditional meats, which have been naturally reared in the Derbyshire Dales or the rich meadows of the White Peak. Even more unusual meat is on offer through The Farmhouse Pantry in Dronfield as part of Peak Food, including Peak District Water Buffalo, Wild Boar, kangaroo, partridge and venison. Organic farming is increasing in interest and demand, with some farms offering Peak Food from their own Farm Shops where the meat has been reared using organic farming methods, before being butchered and sold on the premises  an impressive saving on food miles! Peak District meat is used by butchers and bakers to make pies and pasties, haggis and haslet, black puddings and an assortment of flavoured sausages which are temptingly tasty Peak District food.
