Jerry in 2015

Jerry James Stone is an American food blogger, vegetarian chef, activist, and internet personality, known for simple gourmet recipes, advocacy for a sustainable food and wine movement, and as a social media personality.[1][2] In 2015, a Sierra Club magazine article named him one of nine chefs changing the world.[3]

In 2012, Stone won a Shorty Award in the “Green” category[4] (for which he was nominated by Green Festivals[5][6]), and joined the advisory board of SXSW for their festival’s environmental conference, SXSW Eco.[1][7] Stone's career began as a computer engineer at the U.S. Department of Defense.[3] His early engagement in the technology industry and environmental movement led him to blog for the Discovery Channel. He attracted enough interest that YouTube approached him to start a channel, Cooking Stoned.[3] Prior to focusing on the sustainable food movement, he contributed to The Atlantic, Discovery Channel's Tree Hugger and Animal Planet, and MAKE Magazine.[5] In 2014, Jerry started the Three Loaves project for organizing home cooks to help feed the homeless in their community.[8] He has developed recipes for Whole Foods Market and Cline Cellars.[1][9] His recipes have also been featured by the Today Show[10] and People Magazine.[2][11] As of 2015, he has more than 600,000 social media followers.[3]
