A Q&A with Made In Hackney founder Sarah Bentley about her journey and new book
Book signings, conversation and connection
ABOUT WE COOK PLANTS

So much more than a cookbook it features conversations about juicy topics such as how to decolonize the food system, vegen versus organic farming, why millions of why millions of people are going hungry in the 6th wealthiest nation in the world – and much more.
