Supporting local producers
The New Forest Marque
We support the local produce economy in and around the New Forest. One of the ways we do this is through our support for the New Forest Marque.
This is a scheme with a recognised logo that clearly identifies items that have been produced in the New Forest. Business advice, bespoke training, marketing assistance, improved sales and consumer confidence – these are among the benefits you stand to get when you join the Marque.
Whether you’re a producer, processor or seller, you can apply to be licensed to join the scheme if your business fits the local criteria. See if you could benefit your business by joining the New Forest Marque.

A well recognised and trusted emblem
'The Marque is well recognised as a trusted emblem and having that on our produce is important to us. It's like Red Tractor but on a local scale. It also helps us to navigate our small business. We can go to the Marque meet-ups and speak to other producers for advice, talk about the things they've experienced and how that might help us.' - Josh, owner of Othens Farm and New Forest Marque member
