Sam Buckley, the chef and owner of Stockport restaurant Where The Light Gets In, is to become the first ever ‘chef in residence’ at the Chelsea Flower Show. Sam will be in charge of the show’s first ‘working kitchen’ at the world famous horticultural show.
A partnership with the real estate firm Savills, the garden has been devised by award-winning designer Mark Gregory, and works on the idea of ‘plot to plate’. Sam will be foraging food from the garden, and using it to create menus from the kitchen during the show, which starts next month.
Any food that’s not used will be kept and used for menus the next day, ensuring that nothing is wasted.
