Featuring reflections from Irish specialists and practitioners drawn from all across the food sector, Dinner 2050: The Future of Food in Ireland sees documentary makers Tadgh Byrne, Max Barry and Tiernan O’Rourke take a fascinating look at what things might be like in the future, as they explore a host of topics including sustainability in the food supply chain, drone deliveries, and how developments in technology will impact and change the world of farming.
Viewers can look forward to hearing insights from a who’s who of the current Irish food and drink scene, with contributions from Niall Sabongi of Sustainable Seafood Ireland, Airfield Estate’s Claire McEvilly, and Chef JP McMahon, amongst others.
