Big Issue North 2022 calendar

This year, we’ve worked together with the brilliant team at FareShare Yorkshire to produce a recipe for each month of the year, focusing on affordable, seasonal, delicious food, courtesy of FullCrumb Kitchen.

For our vendors, like all of us, food is more than just a source of sustenance; it’s a time machine, taking you forward to your next hearty meal, or backwards to childhood memories.

We’ve asked 12 of our vendors to tell us something about the food they love to cook, the food they remember, and the food they’re looking forward to. You’ll find these on each page, with fantastic illustration from Ruth Tuck (find her on Instagram on @ruthiefrances_art).

Every penny raised from selling our calendars goes either directly into our vendors’ pockets or is reinvested into allowing us to do more to support them.

Thank you, and happy eating!
