Happy 100th Birthday, Sir David Attenborough! 🌿
Today, we join the world in celebrating a truly monumental milestone— from the smallest bugs to the most ancient trees. His lifelong dedication has taught us that the natural world is a treasure worth protecting, and his wisdom remains our guiding light:
At the Hackney School of Food, we are proud to honour his legacy by bringing that sense of wonder into our own little corner of London, for urban children to be hands on with nature.
Thank you, Sir David, for showing us the way. We hope to emulate your passion, even in the smallest of ways, right here in our gardens.

From our garden: chocolate mint. Have you come across it before?
There are over 30 varieties of mint including fruity, spicy and some too strong for anything but catnip! The children who try this say it tastes like chewing gum and toothpaste. But we think it’s like @aftereightuki from the ground!
More garden curiosities from our thriving food and garden education space and lead gardener @lidkaflowerpower to follow.

Last week, we swapped our desks for a kitchen garden at @hackneyschooloffood – and it was exactly what we needed! 🌿
A morning spent getting clear on where we’re going and how we get there together. A farm tour, a lunch made with ingredients pulled fresh from the soil, and an afternoon getting our hands dirty making infused butters, oils and salts with the brilliant @tomthefoodchampion. We all went home with something something delicious!
Thank you Hackney School of Food for an incredible day, and for all the work you’re doing in the community. And to our team – we couldn’t do any of this without you 🧡

What began as an attempt to improve school meals has grown into something much bigger: a working model of what food education can really look like.
We’re so thrilled to be featured in @foodism this month, in a piece on London’s urban agriculture.
For us, food isn’t just something you eat. It’s something you understand. Habits formed young tend to stick so our work focuses on exposure, confidence and skills for life.
Thank you @springuine for this joy. Link to read in the profile.

What Kids Cook: Jamaican patty inspired pasties with cheese, leek and kale and cajun spice.
Making pastry can be very fun! And we got quite into the folding action.
Come along to a class or support our work.

Positive, practical change in action.
@hackneyschooloffood is a real life example of how to deliver meaningful change through food. A food education hub, it focuses on growing, cooking and shaping a healthier, more sustainable future.
It’s a brilliant model: corporate and food events help support its community work with children and local families and one many visit to emulate and replicate.
The site incorporates a stunning sun-kissed garden, state-of-the-art kitchen and light and airy events space. Lunch with a view is guaranteed.
I’m thrilled to be joining the team part time on a contract as Commercial and Marketing Lead to help find ways to generate more revenue for their community work.
I’ll be tapping my corporate and food experience as well as my network. I know @cerijoneschef @keshia.sakarah_ @ixta.belfrage @sophiethenutritionist and @dethample have been involved already.
More incoming, I hope you’ll join the ride. If you live or work locally and want to get involved, my DMs are open.

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
Keep track of Instagram updates discreetly while protecting your privacy and staying anonymous.
View profiles and photos anonymously with ease using the Private Profile Viewer.
This free tool allows you to view Instagram Stories anonymously, ensuring your activity remains hidden from the story uploader.
