Hosted by Olive Wood Vegan

Australia . Joined in October 2023

Since age 5 cooking has been my most reliable source of joy. I first discovered this in my mud kitchen behind the wood shed on the 100 acre bush block that I grew up on in rural Australia. Here I would create feasts from whatever I could find to replicate edible ingredients, dirt for flour, leaves for salad etc, all the while talking through each step of my creations to an imaginary camera. On the farm I grew up on, my deep love and care for animals was kindled. My father would bring home injured wildlife and I had a menagerie of animals from orphaned lambs to rescue bob-tailed lizards. So it wasn’t too much of surprise when at age 24, whilst on tour around Australia with my band, I was struck by the life changing shift to veganism. The tour bus had broken down right on the corner of the road to one of Australia’s biggest pork producing slaughterhouses. Through the night I listened and watched as truck loads of innocent baby pigs were being driven to their brutal death. Their screams cut through to my heart more than anything had done before and it was in this moment, as tears streamed down my face, that I knew there was no going back. From this day on I would do everything in my power to create a vegan world. Having already spent my life developing knowledge and passion for food, it seemed like the best way to inspire people and spread the message. One year later I was accepted into Le Cordon Bleu London to become one of the first people in history to obtain their Plant Based Culinary Arts Diploma, and the following year I published by book The Seasonal Vegan with Affirm Press.
