Made between the hills and the sea.

Orchards, farm kitchens and Jurassic shores: a county to explore through its flavours.

Dorset at a glance

Dorset runs from the Jurassic Coast into chalk downs, wooded valleys, farms and market towns. Across the county, coastal ingredients and rural craft sit unusually close together.

The Local's Dorset edit follows that connection between landscape and making: producers whose work begins with what is grown, gathered or carefully made here.

Made here.
