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.[2][3] In 2015, a Sierra Club magazine article named him one of nine chefs changing the world.[4]

In 2012, Stone won a Shorty Award in the “Green” category[5] (for which he was nominated by Green Festivals[6][7]), and joined the advisory board of SXSW for their festival’s environmental conference, SXSW Eco.[2][8] Stone's career began as a computer engineer at the U.S. Department of Defense.[4] 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.[4] Prior to focusing on the sustainable food movement, he contributed to The Atlantic, Discovery Channel's Tree Hugger and Animal Planet, and MAKE Magazine.[6] In 2014, Jerry started the Three Loaves project for organizing home cooks to help feed the homeless in their community.[9] He has developed recipes for Whole Foods Market and Cline Cellars.[2][10] His recipes have also been featured by the Today Show[11] and People Magazine.[3][12] As of 2015, he has more than 600,000 social media followers.[4]
