Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall is a multi-award-winning writer and broadcaster known for his uncompromising commitment to seasonal, ethically produced food and his concern for the environment.
He has earned a huge following through his River Cottage TV series and books, as well as campaigns such as Hugh’s Fish Fight, Hugh’s War on Waste, Britain’s Fat Fight and, his latest, War on Plastic with Hugh and Anita.
Hugh’s early smallholding experiences were shown in the Channel 4 River Cottage series and led to the publication of The River Cottage Cookbook (2001), which won the Glenfiddich Trophy and the André Simon Food Book of the Year award. Thirteen more books have followed, including the acclaimed River Cottage Meat Book and the immensely popular River Cottage Veg Everyday. Hugh’s latest book is River Cottage Much More Veg.
Hugh established River Cottage in 2004 and today, River Cottage is an award-winning cookery school and events venue based on the Dorset/Devon border, a phenomenal force in cookery book publishing and a well-loved and trusted brand of ethically produced organic foods.
We have partnered with Hugh to create the exclusive River Cottage hamper so you can enjoy the unique River Cottage experience from the comfort of your own home.
