About Ysanne

kitchen

My name is Ysanne Spevack, and I’m the founder of OrganicFoodee.com

I was born and bred in London, but I moved to California a few years ago. I’m currently developing a new book, writing features for freelance clients including the Los Angeles Times food section, and playing music when not enjoying the great Californian landscape.

I’ve had thirteen books published, all of them about organic and slow food. They include: Organic Cookbook; Fresh & Wild - A Real Food Adventure; and The Real Taste of Japan plus my industry report for Reuters about the international organic, functional and whole foods market.

My books have been praised by a bunch of great publications, including UK Observer Food Monthly and Zest. Conde Nast’s Easy Living magazine featured me last year, House & Home Ideas magazine called me an eco-hero (which I was particularly pleased about), and The Grocer UK said some cool stuff.

My writing has been published in Food Illustrated, Organic Style, Natural Products News, Natural Parent, Yoga, and Organic Living, plus many other British, American and Asian magazines. I was founding consultant editor of Organic magazine in the UK, and have appeared on the BBC and independent radio as well as podcasting. My books have been translated into a number of languages, and go down particularly well in France. Oh, and I have run this organic blog since 1999.

When not writing about organic food, I’m making music.
