DESCRIPTION
Profits from the sale of this book go to the Farmacy Foundation, which invests in farms and educational initiatives that regenerate soil and empower people to transform their health.
Farmacy London is a restaurant in Westbourne Grove, Notting Hill. Everything on the menu is plant-based and free from dairy, refined sugars, additives and chemicals.
EVERYTHING they grow on their organic, biodynamic farm in Kent, make and serve is transformational. Organically and biodynamically prepared between the soil and the sun, every dish is nutritionally curated for those passionate about taste, provenance and ‘living food’ recipes that are good for human health and sustainability. Just as nature intended.
Farmacy’s new book is an insurgent manifesto for a radically different way of eating and farming. It traces a path from the health of the soil to the health of human beings, with food as the connecting agent between our mental, physical and planetary wellbeing.
A collaboration between researchers, artists and writers, the Farmacy Manifesto on the Future of Food is a handsomely produced pocket-sized tour de force through the interconnected topics of soil ecology, industrial agriculture, the medicinal qualities of food, the gut-brain axis and regeneration, charting a bold path towards the renewal of our civilization.
The book is authored by Aurora Solá & Camilla Fayed and art directed by Carol Montpart. It features botanical image sequences by Batia Suter.
