Eataleni : a monthly pop-up cullinary experience on Enaleni Farm.
In the words of the humble farmer Richard Haigh himself...
Eataleni has recently reopened after being closed for nearly a year - an activist little pop-up experience in the farrago of a homestead at Enaleni. Being an agro-ecologist I'm interested in the politics of food and appetite...and keen to explore this further by way of an on-farm eating experience emerging from the synergy between farmer, chef and visitor. A local mindfulness around eating with 90% of produce grown, harvested and transformed within a 350m radius of your table this includes;heritage meat, eggs, dairy, cheeses etc, fruit, nuts, honey, vegetables, crops, herbs, foraged goodies and water. With time we might manage to get it up to 98% but for now 90% is real. Low carbon footprint, super fresh, simple but not simplistic food all grown on farm in a mixed farming system with heart and without animal mutilations and routine antibiotics and without agrochemical inputs, it is the absolute opposite of 'factory fresh'.
I've invited Charlie Lakin to work with me on a once a month event for a year. Two friends sharing their passion with similar interests but different knowledge bases is how Charlie put it and ..local in the purest sense. Charlie seems to understand my type of farming having grown up on a little farm in Yorkshire.
