Alison Drover, The Alison Principle
An ambassador for ‘taste’ and responsible eating, Alison is recognised for herfood sustainability expertise, creative design and her collaborative strategies which provoke thought and champion change with regards to corporate and social responsibility.
As a designer and producer of countless food events, Alison was the inspiration behind the concept of hosting a picnic on the Sydney Harbour Bridge as the official launch of the Sydney International Food Festival. Engaged by the NSW Premiers Department and Events NSW, the highly successful ‘Breakfast on the Bridge’ received much acclaim. It was based on the design of a community-driven food event with sustainable and ethical food sponsorship, which paid NSW farmers directly.
The Alison Principle
The Beautiful Feasts’ mandate is to create food sourced from local, sustainable and humanly reared produce.
Where possible we choose organic but many local growers and producers are not certified, yet make important commitments to a range of agricultural practices that include no pesticides, natural and organic fertilizers, free ranging, and ongoing re-evaluations of past detrimental methods.
Sian Peacock owner of The Beautiful Feast is thrilled to participate in another great cultural initiative. She has the experience required to create and produce a special menu, having run recent similar events including; Artists tent Bluesfest, The Echo Awards, and Voyeur, to name a few.
