Danger of Wadebridge becoming "Clone Town"
There is a serious danger of Wadebridge becoming "Clone Town" if independent retailers and food outlets are forced out. Threat of closure faced by thriving village shops-cum-post offices in St Mabyn, St Tudy, Chapel Amble + farm shop at St Kew. Need to consider reducing food miles and encouraging more consumption of local, seasonal food. The pioneering work of Camel Community Supported Agriculture at St Kew Highway, a community food growing initiative with a weekly veg box scheme, could also be hit by additional supermarkets (Charlotte Barry).

Oh come on ....weekly veg box schemes have been thriving for years! Any local veg box scheme is going to be affected by the likes of similar ventures not supermarkets.
ReplyDeleteThese opinions are so linear and black and white, and most of all unhelpful and unrepresentative.
