Chef Jack Coetzee of Urbanologi restaurant talks about Project 150, his bold new sustainability initiative.
sustainability. If we keep our current food habits we will not survive. The only cheats we have in the restaurant are dry store condiments.
Project 150 means that all our fresh produce including protein is sourced within a 150km radius of our restaurant in Ferreiras Dorp. By sourcing closer it's kinder to the environment and supports local farmers who employ local people and in turn support families. It's a momentum game in which every little contribution counts. We have massive power in what we choose to buy from day to day and need to vote with our forks.I had to do a lot of research before we could give the project the go-ahead. A lot of googling and asking locals where are the best spots.
