Food Matters meets the people who are trying to reconnect us with real, healthy and sustainable food.  With our food system causing huge problems for the health of people and planet, there’s a quiet revolution happening driven by passionate people in communities and food businesses around the world who want to do things differently – producing nutritious food in a way that doesn’t cost the earth.  Food Matters tells their story.   Join Mick Kelly, founder of GIY as he dives in to proper conversations with the most fascinating food producers, chefs, farmers, scientists, activists and other stakeholders across the food system touching on everything from the pitfalls of ultra-processed foods, food waste and pollution; seasonality, eating more plants, regenerative farming and so much more..   Only by understanding the full panorama of our food's journey can we cultivate a healthier, more sustainable food-future.
