BBC Radio 4’s The Food Programme has opened nominations for the 15th year of the BBC Food & Farming Awards and is calling on people in Wales to nominate their local cooks, markets, food businesses and food heroes.
Nominations are open for two weeks via www.bbc.co.uk/foodawards.
The UK-wide awards celebrate the people and organisations in Britain who produce and sell quality food. Categories include Best Food Producer, Cook of the Year, Best Food Initiative and more.
The judging team includes some of the most respected experts on food and drink in the UK including Angela Hartnett, Shelia Dillon, Giorgio Locatelli, Richard Corrigan and Charlotte Smith.
As the longest running food event of its kind in the UK these awards have captured changes in food and drink over the last 15 years.
Once the judges have selected a shortlist for each category, they will visit each finalist in person.
Winners will be announced at the BBC Food & Farming Awards ceremony in Bristol on Thursday, April 30.
