Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is holding a 'farm to fork' summit at Downing Street with people from the farming and food industries. They'll be discussing the whole of the food chain, from the high costs farmers are facing to produce our food, to the shortage of labour for harvesting and processing. They'll be talking about transparency in the food chain - and how consumers facing the cost of living crisis can be supplied with UK-grown, affordable food.

We catch up with Lea Valley Growers to find out whether things have improved.
