Cornish Sardines, along with Kent cherries, British bees, Somerset cider and Suffolk salami, Nick Howell from the Pilchard Works are just some of twenty nominations for the prestigious 2009 Local Food Heroes Awards by the BBC's Countryfile Magazine. These food industry nominated awards celebrate a wide variety of food people all determined to keep our food traditions alive - evidence of the importance of these and other awards and campaigns can now be judged by the number of local products appearing on our national supermarket shelves - all good news for the Cornish fishing industry!
