| The Good Life Show Organiser, Heidi Warricker says: “We are absolutely thrilled to have such a stellar line-up of chef talent on board. One of the biggest trends worldwide is wellness, sustainability and food awareness, and this is where the Good Life Show is bang on target. People are becoming more aware of what they are consuming, where it comes from as well as the effects on the environment. Chefs are actively seeking to source higher quality, locally sourced, and often smaller producer ingredients. This trend is driven by a desire for fresh, flavourful and healthier food, support for local communities, and a growing emphasis on sustainability and ethically produced goods.” |
