Soil, science and the art of storytelling

In this episode we speak to Professor Lorna Dawson CBE, head of the Centre for Forensic Soil Science at the James Hutton Institute and discuss forensic applications of soil, food provenance, rural crime, science communication, regenerative farming, soil health, and public engagement and why storytelling is key to making science relatable. In this instance, this is to ensure the role and importance of soil gets the attention it deserves in our food systems, legal structures, and public policy.

Alexia explains how empowering individuals at a local level, such as farmers, chefs, and catering teams, helps create lasting behavioural change.Partnerships that matter: From engaging with food service giants like Green King and Aramark to partnering with public sector organisations like the NHS and in schools, Alexia discusses how Love British Food has expanded its reach to drive sustainable food choices on a larger scale.Changing attitudes in schools and beyond: Alexia shares the success of a food education guide created for schools, endorsed by government bodies, and how it’s helping to instil a love of British food in future generations.The role of communications in sustainability: We explore the importance of communicating sustainability goals and how Love British Food’s approach is creating meaningful, long-term connections between British food producers and consumers.The power of community networks: Alexia talks about leveraging established networks and organisations like the Women’s Institute, National Trust, and young farmer’s groups to spread the message of buying British and supporting local food.Join us as we explore how Love British Food is reshaping the food sector through the power of community-driven communication, making British food synonymous with sustainability, nutrition, and support for local farmers.
