“Our vision with Moosemeat & Marmalade is to bring together two important food trends: society’s obsession with food as art and our growing concern for food sustainability,” explains Mike Wavrecan, Producer, Mooswa Films. “Viewers can expect to laugh a lot as they learn innovative recipes they can make at home, along with a few that are slightly outside of their comfort zone!”

“One of the biggest production challenges we faced was to hunt and forage successfully for our ingredients within the production timeline,” explains Director Hilary Pryor.” But we got lucky – even the wild buffalo turned up on set right on time!”
