Who grows and produces the food you eat?
The Hand That Feeds is a photography exhibition in two locations (Source Food Hall and Cafe, and Poco) that serve and sell locally sourced food.
It features a series of portrait photographs of the farmers and makers who grow, raise and produce this food, and connects you with the people and stories behind the food you eat.
Follow The Hand That Feeds on Facebook for updates. This is a free exhibition, drop in at any time.

Steph Wetherell is the Locavore, and she spent the last two years living and working on farms in Canada. During this time, she formed a strong connection to the food that she ate, with most produced by herself or people she knew within a 10 mile radius of where she lived. She returned to Bristol inspired to eat locally in this city, and form connections with the food she eats. Wanting to go further than just shopping in the local organic shop, she decided to set out and meet the people who grow and produce the food she eats. She’s passionate about supporting small scale farmers and buying directly from producers where possible. The Locavore is her journey, and the stories of the people she meets along the way.
