Show Notes

Veganism is often portrayed as being good for planetary and personal health – the implication being that meat production and consumption is, therefore, the problem. There is increasing acceptance, though, that the real picture for us and for the planet is not nearly as simple as that. Join us for a positive discussion of the reality of the environmental nuances of how meat and non-meat are farmed, as we try to unpick and give perspective on this too often polarised debate.

Chair Angela Clutton – food historian, writer and host of the hugely successful Borough Market Cookbook Club – will be joined by chef and climate change campaigner Tom Huntand Jan McCourt of Northfield Farm, who has been trading at Borough Market for more than 21 years selling slow-reared, traditional British and rare breed meat.
