Tom Hunt Eco Chef

Tom Hunt is an eco-chef who has been championing the right food for years. He is passionate about inspiring people to think creatively about cooking and eating. Whilst he acknowledges the twin challenges of time and money that people battle with, he does believe that the right mindset can change the way we eat, in a way that is better for us and the planet.

He writes a column for the Guardian on Food waste, founded a zero-waste restaurant in Bristol, has lived off-grid with his family and recently created a genuinely Happy Meal with the Soil Association. He catches up with Ollie and recounts stories of cooking with the legendary Francis Mallamann, milking goats as a child before school and his plans for a new ice cream brand.
