Fixing Our Food System Together
Sign the Petition to Stop Substandard US Food Imports!
Letting in cheap food that’s illegal to produce here isn’t trade – it’s betrayal. We want trade to happen, but never at the expense of British farmers.
The UK government says it won’t compromise our food standards—but if we don’t speak up now, that promise could unravel under pressure.
As Liz Webster, founder of Save British Farming, puts it:
These imports could be “devastating for British farming, food security, public health, animal welfare, and the environment.”
Our Mission
Vegans Support the Farmers is campaigning for farmer-led demands to transform our broken food system, while also fundraising to improve the mental health of farmers struggling to cope right now.
Our aim is to create allyship between vegans and farmers, to shift the way in which the media pits vegans against farmers, and to make progress towards solutions to fix our food and farming systems together.
Our Goal For 2025
Stop Harmful Imports
It is currently legal for some types of food and drink produced to standards that have been outlawed for our farmers to still be imported and sold. This not only undercuts the products produced to higher standards by British farmers, but it allows the harmful practices to continue abroad where they are hidden from us. We need this to end and for legislation to be created that holds imports to the same standards as our farmers.
Thank you for your support!
We raised £6,000 for The DPJ Foundation, a fantastic mental health charity that specialises in supporting those in farming communities. We ran four sponsored half-marathons in 2024 to raise these funds and really appreciate every donation we received.
