In this episode of Birmingham food podcast Breaking Bread, your hosts Liam & Carl delve into the inspiring journey of Andrew Perry, aka Andy Grows Herbs, co-owner of Urban Herbs. Join us as we explore the incredible story of how Andy transformed the tiny front garden of a former council house into a thriving oasis of edible plants. Through his experiences and insights, we uncover the importance of a food-growing revolution and its impact on down-to-earth areas.

Episode Highlights:

1. Introduction to Andy Grows Herbs: Meet Andy Perry, the visionary behind Urban Herbs, as he shares his mission to prove that anyone, regardless of their living situation, can grow their own food.

2. The Essence of a Food Growing Revolution: Discover why growing your own food is becoming a crucial life skill, especially in a society where seasonal interactions are limited to brief walks from the front door to the car.

3. Rationing and Rising Prices: Learn how the recent rationing of fresh produce in UK supermarkets and soaring fruit and vegetable prices highlight the urgency of reconnecting with food growth and self-sustainability.

4. Andrew's Transformational Garden: Dive into the remarkable journey of turning a small front garden into a bountiful source of fresh produce. Andy discusses the challenges he faced and the lessons he learned along the way.

5. Empowering Communities: Explore the birth of Spring Arts, a community interest company co-founded by Andrew and his partner, which focuses on teaching children how to grow their own food. Discover how they're igniting a deeper connection between growing and consuming.

6. Growing Beyond the Garden: Andrew reveals his approach to working with primary schools and creating small-scale growing spaces. Uncover how they're leaving a lasting impact through educational initiatives and a practical how-to guide.

7. Cultivating Resilience: Andy provides valuable advice for beginners and those facing setbacks in their home gardens. Embrace realistic expectations and self-compassion to overcome challenges.

8. Harvesting Hope: Wrap up the episode by reflecting on the powerful message of hope and self-empowerment that Andy Perry's journey brings. Rediscover the joy of growing your own food and be inspired to join the food-growing revolution.

   9. Connect with Urban Herbs: Find out how to connect with Urban Herbs, learn more about their projects, and get involved in the food-growing movement.

 HELLO FOODIES, This week we are Breaking Bread With Head Chef & owner of one of our favourite restaurants at the moment, Little Blackwood Moseley.  We start the episode off by going through Bens work history, places he has trained at, and how working in hotel kitchens is so different to working in a normal restaurant and changes dramatically again, when you own your own restaurant. Since recording this episode, we have been very lucky to have become friends with Ben & his girlfriend restaurant manager Zsofia. As you hear in the show, Ben is extremely passionate about his restaurant and loves what he does. I think the crazy hard work that goes in to being a restaurant owner is evident.

 HELLO FOODIES, Carl and I are back again this week. We start by talking about some of the delicious meals Carl has been cooking at home. Not as much home cooked food this week, as we have been eating out lots lately.  One of the meals we had was at Lasan in the Jewellery Quarter. They have launched a brand new weekend feast menu and we were kindly invited to try it.
