This is an volunteer organisation that has been operating for nearly 14 years helping to promote the Town of Castle Douglas. The Initiative was given the opportunity to promote Castle Douglas as  a Food Town and does so by organising events and promotional activities to help attract visitors to the area and to the town. Castle Douglas Food Town Initiative has a membership of over 50 members made up from a wide range of businesses and interested parties in the town from the town. It has monthly meetings in the Mad Hatter Café on Mondays, normally the 2nd Monday in the month. All businesses or residents are welcome to these meetings. The organisation works very closely with the CDDF which acts as the umbrella organisation for both the Food Town Initiative and the Civic Events Committee. See www.cd-foodtown.org for more details.
