The Soil Association was recently involved in association with luxury lifestyle group, Quintessentially to help organise an organic-themed event named the ‘Feast of Albion’ that took place at The Guildhall in London.  The main ethos of the event was that the food served by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall was all organic and from certified organic farms within a 50 mile radius of the venue.  All the food was delivered to the event by cyclists in aid of a carbon light food delivery. 

The gala evening attracted celebrities such as Mike Jagger, Jemima Khan, Sophie Dahl and Tom Parker Bowles to name but a few.  Guests were entertained with the best of British food, fashion and music all in aid of helping to promote the Soil Association reconnect people with good healthy, seasonal, local and organic food produced in sustainable ways.
