    #14 Søren Ejlersen, Co-founder of Aarstiderne

    In this episode, I’m meeting with Søren Ejlersen, a Danish chef, author, and entrepreneur who is the co-founder of the meal subscription service Aarstiderne. We recorded the episode at his new project BaneGaarden in Copenhagen, back in January. It will turn into a community space and site that explores the future of food with farmers and fish markets, sustainable eateries, cooking classes, and a plant nursery. We also talk about his school garden project Haver til Maver, how to give access to healthy and sustainable food for everyone, eating wild plants, how to be transparent as a company, the most urgent changes everyone needs to do in their diet, why plant-based processed food is so problematic, and Aarstiderne’s new concept ’Planetar’ - meaning being a planetarian, eating well for the future of your planet and community.
