In this episode we chat with Pete Russell, the inspiring founder of Ooooby (Out of Our Own Backyards), a platform revolutionising the way we source food by connecting small-scale, local food producers directly with consumers. Pete's mission is to make fresh, locally-grown produce easily accessible while supporting sustainable, regenerative farming practices. With a background in food distribution and a passion for creating a more equitable food system, Pete has grown Ooooby into a global movement that champions the benefits of local food economies and community resilience.

Join us as Pete shares his journey from his early days in the food industry to founding Ooooby, his vision for a sustainable food future, and the challenges and triumphs he’s experienced along the way. Whether you're passionate about local food, interested in sustainability, or curious about innovative business models, this episode is packed with insights you won't want to miss!

Lots of love,

Dave & Steve
