In part two of Franco's conversation with chef, educator and slow food activist Alice Waters, we step into the classroom and talk fast food.

Listen in to the second half of Franco's conversation with Alice Waters: chef and founder of Chez Panisse, pioneer of The Edible Schoolyard and slow food activist. They cover how the schoolyard project has evolved as it's expanded nationwide, why we need to cook with our children and why now's the time for fast food to have its reckoning. 

We Are What We Eat is available to pre-order now.

We 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.

Make your diet diverse

Our growers work with varieties chosen for quality and nutrition, not yield. By selecting their crops you keep heritage seeds in play, add to ecosystem biodiversity and preserve unique flavours.
