Barny Haughton

Barny is a chef, teacher and food educator who believes that food education should be playing a central role in health and education policy both at local and national government level. Barny opened his first organic restaurant Rocinantes in Bristol in 1988 and went on to run two others. During his restaurant years however, Barny instinctively and inevitably became a cookery teacher; to his chefs, then to children at his own children’s primary school and then, more formally to adults and families. Barny founded Square Food Foundation in 2011, a community cookery school.
