Ep.6 Andy Cato: Grain
June 18, 2021 12:13 - 49 minutes - 45.4 MBIn this episode, Andy answers the question we get asked the most when it comes to regenerative agriculture: could it feed the world?

Ep.3 Alice Waters: An Edible Education

Welcome to Transform the Food System
April 13, 2021 08:40 - 55 seconds - 895 KBThe food system is opaque. When we start to unpack it, we find that it’s broken and taking its toll on the earth, its people and our economies. When just 15¢ of every dollar spent on food goes back to the grower, and industrialised agriculture mushrooms at the expense of biodiversity, soil health and nutritional density, it’s time to tap into the true cost of our food. Let’s put the power back into the hands of growers, and deliver nutritionally dense produce with phenomenal flavour. The e...
