An excellent article featuring the illustrator of our Mission:Explore books in Cambridge News.
A reminder of one of our many reviews...
“Geographers are fond of tracing where things come from, following connections between distant places and thinking about relationships and inter-dependencies. When we think about food, we often talk about closing the links along the supply chain from ‘farm to fork’ or ‘plough to plate’. But, all too often, these ideas are expressed in abstract terms like global food security and sustainable intensification. This exciting new book avoids these abstractions and takes a much more direct hands-on approach, providing us with a whole new set of resources for understanding the world of food. Using the language of exploration and discovery, readers encounter recipes for nettle pesto and elderflower pancakes and are invited to engage in culinary cartography, fantasy farming and guerrilla gardening. Mission: Explore Food provides a fresh way of understanding some fundamental things about the stuff of life through participatory research and action-orientated learning. Take the challenge: get down and dirty with the Geography Collective and City Farmers.” Professor Peter Jackson, University of Sheffield.
