Julia Georgallis is an artisan baker who currently runs a nomadic microbakery called The Bread Companion, as well as being involved in a number of other food related projects such as her annual kitchen residency at the Designers on Holiday summer camp in Sweden and as a partner at Queimado Lisboa. Her most recent work and projects revolve around looking at food as a design solution and as an educative, empowering tool to improve peoples' lives. The How to eat your Christmas tree project came about in winter 2015 as a collaboration between her and friend, Lauren Davies. Lauren and Julia were both interested in sustainability and wanted to collaborate to encouEage people to think about food waste and so they began to experiment with cooking with various Christmas trees and launched their first ever supper club series.

Julia was born and raised in London, but now lives in Lisbon.
