Harrison Ward Author

Born and raised on the edge of the English Lake District, Harrison Ward – aka Fell Foodie – has turned the mountainous landscape of his Cumbrian home into his open-air kitchen. After discovering a passion for hillwalking following a drastic life change, it wasn’t long before he found a way to merge his lifelong passion for cooking with this new love of being out in the hills. A self-taught cook, these days Harrison can often be found creating delicious, restaurant-style meals with minimal equipment high up in the fells of the Lake District. He is also an inspirational speaker, sharing his battles with mental illness and alcoholism, as well as his love of outdoor cooking. He has featured on the BBC’s Mary Berry – Love to Cook and Channel 5’s Winter on the Farm, in national press including Men’s Fitness and Metro, and regularly gives talks to organisations and at events, including CarFest and Kendal Mountain Festival. And, yes, he’s named after Harrison Ford. Cook Out is his first book. @fellfoodie
