Young and Wild Catering

young and wild, Respecting Mother Nature

After many years in the events industry, wildly talented chef and entrepreneur Aubrey Thomson has started up a new style of catering company which designs innovative menus and supplies all elements for corporate and private parties that utilise local products and services from suppliers who are part of, or follow the ‘Slow Food’ ethos, with creative flair and a huge dash of love for food that tastes great and ‘respects mother nature’. Slow food members (over 80,000 of them world wide), offer ethically raised and fairly produced foods from smaller, often family run and sometimes organic producers who care for their employees, local agricultural conditions and any global impacts made by their manufacturing processes.

Fieldpower Organics

FieldPower at The Royal Agricultural College

I presented our journey from non-farmers to one of the first organic carbon-neutral beef & lamb farms. We have almost completed conversion of our house and farm to renewable energy and near zero carbon footprint with insulation, draft proofing, etc, and switching to a wood burner for space heating and wood burning Rayburn for cooking and heating. We also installed a heat store powered by 40 solar tubes and a wood burner. Our 5kW wind turbine and 1kW PV solar panels provide us with electricity. Bore hole water for us and all those thirsty cows. We even make our own 100% bio-diesel from waste vegetable oil to run the farm tractor and the car to deliver your meat boxes ... carbon free, More at www.TransitionNC.org, click Food Directory
