About FEAST
FEAST is a social enterprise working to improve food education in Ireland.
Created in early 2018 by food provocateur, speaker and author Devin O' Sullivan, FEAST has gone on to become a national leader in food education.
Each year we visit over 100 schools nationwide and deliver our immersive and contemporary workshops to about 4000 schoolchildren and teachers.
Our workshops are based primarily on food systems transformation and the future of food. We explore the real story behind the food we all eat with students learning about industrial farming, food miles, supermarket tactics, food waste and simple ways to combat it at home, basic cooking skills and much more.
One of the many unique aspects of our workshops is how we explore the environmental impact of the food we eat, by showing students what is needed to get their favourite foods to the table.
Throughout our classes we give teachers and students a taste of what sustainable food actually is with oysters, seaweed, insects, vertically farmed produce, sustainably fished seafood and more all on the menu. We have a responsibility to champion small scale farmers, growers, producers and food system disruptors during our workshops so we only use the best of what can be grown, harvested, fished and
foraged.
