Introduction
At Salt Yard we believe in having an ethical and sustainable approach to food. Our aim is to use as many local ingredients as possible and to have the right balance of animal protein and plant based ingredients; this is why we were keen to take part in the One Plate Planet initiative.
For our dish we will be using ingredients grown at the Phoenix Farm allotment, our in-house charity Phoenix Flame; A charity enabling ethnically diverse local residents of all ages to acquire new skills. Working with Phoenix High School and its farm, dedicated to supporting local residents in deprived areas of London using a variety of approaches centred on food growing, nutrition and cooking, providing real opportunities for training and employment.
