- The winners of the 16th BBC Food and Farming Awards have been announced at an event which brought together some of Britain's top chefs, food writers and broadcasters including Yotam Ottolenghi, Diana Henry, Mitch Tonks and Angela Hartnett together to celebrate the growing industry
Winners include Hallets Real Cider (Best Drinks Producer), Illtud Llyr Dunsford (Best Food Producer) and Our Cow Molly (The Future Food Award).
Sheila Dillon, founder and host of the awards and presenter of BBC Radio 4’s The Food Programme said, “As always we were looking for great food—that’s transforming society. And we found people and organisations doing that in their thousands. There’s a new generation out there who find the good food business more appealing than technology or media or finance and they’re making it their life’s work. What a wonder!”
Ken Hom, chef said, “It’s a real treat to be at the BBC Food & Farming Awards this year and meet such a fabulous group of finalists and taste their produce. The Awards offer a fantastic opportunity to open people’s eyes to the array of incredible local food that’s on offer to them right across the UK.”
