Come and join me on Saturday 6 July at the Best of Nature Show at the Shoreditch Exchange in London.
This new event, sponsored by the Soil Association and the College of Naturopathic Medicine, will connect you to the latest health and wellness brands , whilst providing insights from leading voices across the organic, natural and wellness community, via a series of health talks. From thought-provoking speakers, to product demonstrations and ample opportunity to connect with peers in the wellness community.
I will be on a panel with Joe Clark, founder of Joe's Garden and author of the book 'Garden to Save the World', and we will be talking about growing your own food at home, something that I have written about in my book 'Conversations on the Lost Connection with Nature'.
Hope to see you there!
Let's Pull that Sweet Tooth
On Sunday 23 June I was a speaker at the Allergy & Free-From Show at Olympia, London.
My talk was about sugar: ‘Let’s Pull that Sweet Tooth – Why We Should Go Sugar-Free’
The purpose of the talk was to explore the benefits and pitfalls of a sugar-free lifestyle, especially for people with allergies and/or those following a free-from diet.
There is an increasing prevalence of food allergies and a growing interest in free-from diets due to health concerns.
Here is an overview of the content of the talk.
The Amazing Mengelmoestuin
Last year in September, I visited the magical Mengelmoestuin, along a dyke between Bergambacht and Ammerstol, in the Netherlands.
Mariel, one of the owners and guardians of this amazing organic, biodynamic garden, is one of the collaborators on my book 'Conversations on the Lost Connection with Nature', a book about the importance of being connected with Nature for our health and well-being and for the future of our planet. I wanted to personally hand over a copy of the book.
It was a wonderful experience. Read more about the Magical Mengelmoestuin.
Connecting with the land, community, and country: Bollywood Farms Singapore
An organic farm in Singapore? I had to see it to believe it, and it didn't disappoint, far from it.
One of the highlights of my recent visit to Singapore.
A lush, green and peaceful oasis in the most biodiverse capital of the world, where 50% of the city is now green space.
But Bollywood Farms is not just an organic farm, it is much more!
