Nutrition
Julius Roberts is a first-generation farmer and restaurant-trained chef living a self-sufficient life on his family's smallholding in Dorset, built around sustainability, seasonality, and animal welfare.
His interest in food began in the kitchens of his childhood. After graduating from art college, he worked in a professional London kitchen, but found the pace of restaurant life unsustainable and returned to the countryside, where he grows and forages much of his own food.
Julius cooks daily using produce grown on his smallholding or foraged from the surrounding woods, turning simple ingredients into food that is both flavourful and accessible for families. He raises pigs, chickens, sheep, and goats on the farm, sharing what he learns along the way with a large following on Instagram and TikTok built on honest stories from farming life alongside home-cooked recipes.
Julius's television series, A Taste of the Country, follows his farm-to-table cooking, and his book, The Farm Table, offers seasonal, unfussy recipes for the home cook.
Julius brings a unique blend of professional kitchen expertise and firsthand farming experience to inspire your team with his passion for sustainability, seasonality, and animal welfare. Booking him as a speaker will not only motivate your team to connect with nature and embrace a more sustainable lifestyle but also enrich them with practical knowledge on how to incorporate these values into their personal and professional lives. His captivating storytelling and practical advice from living a self-sufficient life will leave your team inspired and ready to make meaningful changes.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
