| Provenance is a documentary, written and photographed. Its subject matter is the people who produce, prepare and sell real food. By that we mean food where the way it is grown is more important than the volume that is grown; where attention to quality triumphs over pressure to cut costs; and where produce is fresh and local.
Provenance does not aim to be a directory. Rather Provenance seeks out the fascinating stories told by the people who spend their lives producing and preparing real food for our tables. Like the North Yorkshire dairy farmer who bought a buffalo because his son was allergic to cows milk, and now has a 250-strong herd, producing excellent local mozzarella.
Provenance constitutes a series of simple portraits accompanied by short pieces of prose telling the stories behind these remarkable people.
