Episode 83 SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL (CITY) FARMER with Andres Jara
“My food always comes with a message” Andres Jara
I am all for supporting your locals and for that reason alone this episode is one close to my heart! We recorded this in November 2021 but is still as accurate to share! Talking to the lovely Andres, local farmer and plant based food producer. We speak about his joureny from being a butcher in Italy to a plantbased farmer and food producer in Amsterdam. He aspires to bring more knowledge and appreciation for local and seasonal food choices into town and he does it in such an enthusiastic and passionate way! I love this guy! It’s especially great for those of you living in Amsterdam and able to support Andres and de STADSGROENTEBOER but just as inspiring for those who don’t! . We speak about the farm, how it all works, how the farm started, why we should farm sustainably, how and why we can all do it, how and why to support the project and Andres side projects like his sauces and products with his brand JARA. We speak also about food travelling, creating consciousness in our mindset when it comes to where our food is coming from etc….

ABOUT ANDRES:
Born in Colombia, trained as a chef in Peru, had his own catering company in Colombia, studied gastronomic sciences in Italy, mastered the technique of Italian butchery in Tuscany and is now growing vegetables in the Netherlands. With his enthusiasm and networking skills, he ensures that word gets around fast. He is an expert at finding locally available resources, like woodchips, mushroom compost, or bathtubs! He also sees to it that the greenhouses are kept shipshape and that the farm’s self-made compost is at it best. He loves to use the farm’s produce for events, workshops and his creative products. And he aspires to bring more knowledge and appreciation for local and seasonal food choices into town. Check out his latest project https://jara.earth/
ABOUT DE STADSGROENTEBOER:
We are Andres, Laura, Lisa, Julia and Milo. Gardeners, cooks, bakers, cheesemakers, scientists and food entrepreneurs from the Netherlands, Switzerland and Colombia. We met at a small university in Piedmont, Italy, where we spent four wonderful years studying the origins, taste and culture of food. After each of us had gone on their individual journey through Europe to work on different organic farms and explore the food industry, the time was ripe to start our own project. In December 2018, we took over the vegetable garden from the first Stadsgroenteboer Wout ten Have. In 2021, we got the opportunity to expand our farm from half a hectare to almost one hectare and rent a piece of land in the Lutkemeer polder on the organic farm de Boterbloem.
