Edward Cutler

Edward Cutler is a British-Italian writer, organic farmer and environmental advocate based between Rome and southern Tuscany. Born in Britain and educated at the University of Edinburgh, he has lived in Italy since 2009, where his fascination with the country’s landscapes, geology and biodiversity gradually drew him away from the art world and into green technology, farming and conservation.
In 2020, together with friends and conservationists, Ed founded the Tuscany Environment Foundation, part of the Conservation Collective, which supports environmental projects across the region.
Today, Ed produces organic olive oil in the Tuscan countryside and works on environmental and rewilding initiatives across Italy. He is also course director of the executive programme Biodiversity and Business Sustainability at the European Institute of Innovation for Sustainability in Rome.
This Beautiful Country is his first book.
