Studio 1, Dartington Estate, Totnes, Devon

Join Charlotte Du Cann, Nick Hunt, Caroline Ross and Mark Watson around our convivial Dark Kitchen table, as we serve up a tasty feast of words, recipes and practices from our latest spring Issuee 23 about food that makes sense of everything, even as the civilised world falls apart.

In this ‘show and tell’ we will be stirring the fermenting jar and cooking pot, grinding blue corn and foraging for salt and acorns, telling after dinner tales of eating and being eaten, and remembering a myth about agriculture’s ancient bargain with the wild world. 

This presentation by Dark Mountain’s core team will give you a taste of the book and the regenerative culture it sets out to document in kitchens and fields from around the world, an approach to food growing and eating that is restorative rather than entropic, diverse rather than monocultural; where experience and communication and, most of all, imagination matter. 

Tickets for the event are by donation, details here.
