Creative meat-free pizzas that are kind to the planet. Following 2 years on the pop up scene, we opened our first bricks & mortar site in Hackney, April 2022.Press highlights:-‘Top 10 eco-eateries’- Evening Standard- ‘Top 10 pizza places in London’- Olive Magazine- ‘The best pizzas in London’- Conde Nast Traveller- ‘London’s most sustainable pizza joint’- LondON The InsideWHY WE EXIST:Our food system has the single biggest impact on the planet and our health. We highlighted 3 detrimental yet common ways of eating:1. Excessive meat consumption: “The climate impact of plant-based foods is typically 10 to 50 times smaller than that of animal products, it follows that switching from a largely meat-based diet to a veggie/vegan diet could help to reduce emissions.” (CarbonBrief.org)2. Poor sourcing of ingredients: Pizza is one of the most popular categories in the UK (Statistica). The majority of these pizza menus lack imagination and quality in their ingredients and resort to the status quo including an abundance of highly saturated meats imported from other countries. 11% of food production-related GHG emissions are caused by transportation (Greeneatz)3. Food waste: 1/3 of the world’s food gets wasted. This waste alone amounts to 8% of the world’s GHG emissions. (Environment & Energy Leader) OUR SOLUTIONS:1. Meat-free pizzas for all! In the UK, a switch from the “average diet”, which is rich in meat and dairy, to a nationally recommended diet, which includes more fruit, vegetables and nuts, could cause food-related emissions to fall by up to 17% (Carbonbrief.org)2. Local and seasonal: Our ingredients sourced locally from small suppliers, in line with the seasons. Working closely with suppliers to promote a better food system3. Creative menu planning: Using the whole of the veg, turning the stems and roots into stock, or blitzing ‘wonky’ veg into crust dippers. Fermentation to preserve the veg and avoid food waste as well as boosting gut health

I worked as a volunteer in a community rehabilitation centre. I travelled to India with the charity of surgeons, Hands For Life, on their annual visit to Anandwan. Anandwan is a completely self-sufficient village of over 2000 inhabitants, all of whom are affected by leprosy in some way (albeit directly or family member). It is the most beautiful and enriching environment whereby disabilities, such as blindness, deformities and deafness do not stand in the way of the livelihood of the community. It is a ground-breaking and jaw-dropping village created by Baba Amte.
