Community Focused Business + Vegan Banana Bread

Women In Food

In this week’s episode, I talk to English teacher turned bakery manager, animal rights advocate and business owner, Natasha Tatton. We start with her early memories of less-than-stellar meals and her search for delicious vegan options. Hear about how she first started in food business by serving meals in a hospital in the United Kingdom to running Eds Bred with her husband in Whistler, Canada. Learn about Natasha’s commitment to community in Whistler, and how they organize their 100% plant-based sourdough bakery as a B-Corp. Along the way, we touch on so many topics including how to tame spicy foods, naming our sourdough starters, different ways business can support communities, UK cuisine, sourcing local ingredients, and how being a community-focused business leader is a feminine perspective. Natasha shares her favorite Vegan Banana Bread recipe as a fantastic way to use up older, less-than-perfect bananas and reduce food waste.
