Brock Lewin, Badger and Dodo

I get my kicks from artisan food producers and coffee entrepreneurs are probably the closest to turning me into a fanboy 🙂

This is Brock from Badger and Dodo. It’s a strong brand, only 2 years in existence but has made a disproportionate mark on the Irish coffee scene thanks to Brock’s passion and skills in the space.

This was shot during the foodcamp at the Waterford Festival of Food in Dungarvan and followed on from a great chat where we discussed brands and design, packaging and the Irish coffee scene.

Artisan Food Packaging – my talk at Foodcamp

This is the talk I gave at the Foodcamp in Dungarvan (part of the Waterford Festival of Food) yesterday.

Thanks to the people who attended for asking questions and making the session interesting – I enjoyed it and hope you did as well.
