Alex Montgomery

Alex Montgomery is the founder and director of Generation Soil CIC, a Bristol-based community interest company working at the intersection of food, soil and community. Through the Bristol Living Compost Project, Montgomery has built a city-scale circular system that collects food waste, processes it locally and then returns it as living compost to gardens and growing spaces across the city. Currently completing a PhD exploring Bristol’s relationship with soil, their work challenges throwaway food culture by making the invisible world beneath our feet visible, tangible and worth caring for.
