Ep.5 Dan Barber: Democratising Flavour
Like us, Dan Barber is on a mission to raise the bar on flavour as he shakes up the way food is grown for good.
You might know him from the award winning Netflix series Chef’s Table, where he showcased the efforts of farmers, ecologists and nutritionists through one powerful medium: the plate. His conviction that chefs hold tremendous power to enact change through flavour holds a central line at his two restaurants, and in his book, The Third Plate. His most recent endeavour is Row 7 Seeds: a seed company on a mission to democratise flavour. A vital component for building a better food future, which we delve into further in this episode.
Stories
See allWe exist to fix the food system.
People are more cut off from the origins of their food than ever. This makes flavour, nutrition and farming practices that protect the planet, almost impossible to find.
By working directly with growers, we create a more sustainable way forward for farming. By giving everyone the tools to understand the power of our food choices, we empower everybody to become drivers of change.
Now is the time for action. Join the food system revolution.
