The F Word : A Whyfield Podcast

23 - Food Miles: supporting local, reducing waste, and rethinking what’s on your plate

Whyfield

In this episode of The F Word, we explore the journey of Farm to plate, and everything inbetween, with Lucy Jones and Victoria Amran, Founders of The Cornish Food Box Company, and sisters! 

Lucy and Tor have created something truly special, all starting from a single veg box delivered out of the boot of Tor’s car, to becoming a pillar of Cornwall’s local Food movement. They are passionate about supplying good, local, and real Food to Cornwall from Cornwall, supporting local growers, Farmers, Fishermen, bakers, and makers, all while delivering the Food we should be eating. 

With issues such as Food security, Food waste, climate change, and Financial challenges hitting our headlines, it’s so important for us to change the way we think about Food, and how we can better support ourselves and our communities. 

Whether you’re curious about what’s really in your ‘Food’ (or ‘edible Food-like substances’), want to make radical changes to your diet or weekly shopping habits, or you’re looking to get inspiration to cook Fresh meals from scratch, this episode is packed with insights, practical tips, and the powerful reminder that small changes make a big impact. 

Enjoy episode 23 of The F Word.

P.s For more reading on ultra-processed Food and while we all can’t stop eating it, Tor has recommended ‘Ultra-Processed People’ by Chris van Tulleken.
