July at Hand Made Food
For the Amnesty International Media Awards at the Royal Horticultural Hall Westminster on the VIP menu we served :
Organic Beatbush Farm goose with gooseberry pickle

Asparagus cream, broad bean and lemon oil tarts
Dear Helen and Ferg, thank you for the exquisite food -everyone has been saying how delicious it was. You have been a delight to work with! on behalf of everyone at Amnesty , thank you again. Amnesty International
We were also honoured to do the opening event for the new Chegworth Valley Farm shop in Kensington Church Street. Long live British food heros.
The veg and the meat.
We are inspired by Farmer's Markets and the Characters who work with the land.
We cook with organic and free range meats.
We want you to eat with the season and love it.
We have a strong desire to cultivate land and grow our own organic food - against a social background of agrochemical devastation of the soil, ruthless manipulation of the food market and subsidies for food exports -which destroy the livelihood of millions of poor farmers.
Legislation and planning policies favour agriculture on an industrial scale - all in the name of providing food for rich consumer societies.
This 'cheap' food costs us poor nutrition, obesity, poor health and the disappearance of civilized mealtimes. It also requires 'cheap' transport which pollutes and increases global warming, consumes vast quantities of energy and exerts such an enormous political pressure that wars are declared in order to perpetuate it.
As Chefs we wish to celebrate the growing of food and the good rearing of livestock in as direct a manner as possible, that is, by cooking it.
