Andy Cato, Wildfarmed co-founder, is an award-winning mixed arable and livestock farmer. It was an article 15 years ago about modern food production’s environmental and health consequences, that inspired Andy, a Grammy-nominated musician, to sell his publishing rights to fund a farm in France. There he spent a decade trying to find a more restorative and sustainable way of growing food. He was awarded the 2020 Laureate Nationale for innovation in agroecology and the Chevalier de l’Ordre du Mérite Agricole. Now back on British soil and farming as a tenant of the National Trust, Andy and his Wildfarmed colleagues are on a mission to help farmers move towards soil-focused farming, and make real food grown in real soil available on the high street at affordable prices.

Hosting the event is TV presenter and journalist Nick Kwek who presents BBC shows Click and The Travel Show as well as Discovering The World’s Table, where he uncovers a place’s culture and heritage through its local producers and cuisine.

This is a seated event (unreserved seating).
