This week, we're back at Rockwater, Hove with River Cottage writer, Lucy Brazier telling a live audience about her memoir, The Honesty Box.It's a highly moving and very funny diary about healing a broken marriage and growing enough vegetables to fill her new distraction, an honesty box. But the rickety old receptable outside her garden gate is also a metaphor for the treasure trove she finds as she lifts the lid on the mental health crisis her husband – and the rest of the family – have been living with.We begin with a question from the audience about the title, and if it was always meant to have such a brilliant double meaning. Pop over to Gilly's Substack for Extra Bites of Lucy and the audience Q&A at Cooking the Books Live. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This month, Fiona visited River Cottage, to chat with Author, Chef and Fermentation Expert Rachel DeThample. Rachel breaks down how eating organically grown vegetables can have a positive impact on the gut microbiome, and dives in to how fermenting the produce from your garden can lead to better nutrition and a stronger connection to nature. “We're a no dig garden, all organic” says Rachel, “so we're constantly feeding the soil with healthy ingredients to help with it's diversity, and that's a really lovely way of reflecting that you can do the same thing with your own microbiome, feed it lots of diversity which helps create a healthier balance” Also in this episode… Fiona and Chris chat about how gardening and being outdoors in winter improve your wellbeing.

Mark Diacono found his life's purpose and direction through food and he has dedicated his life to growing, cooking and writing about it. Having been involved in the early days of River Cottage, Mark went on to pursue his dream of creating his own farm, turning two blank fields in southwest England into 17-acres of diverse fruit and veg plots, orchards and forest gardens. In this episode of Food Matters, Mark shares his incredible life story with GIY founder Mick Kelly, along with his thoughts on modern diets, food sustainability, and the transformational power of quality homegrown produce. They also talk about:Mark's love of writing books and all about his latest one, called ‘Vegetables'. How to get creative with growing and cooking vegetables while also making sure you're also getting all the nutrition you need. His memories of River Cottage and the valuable lessons he learned during his time there. Why tasting a mulberry change his life.The biggest mistake most of us make when growing courgettes. Why he feels people in Ireland and the UK spend so little on quality food, and what needs to happen to change it.
This week, as the UK (and France) go to the polls, Gilly chats to Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall about the best way to support the NHS, his latest book How to Eat 30 Plants a Week.Last time we met to talk about the River Cottage's Good Comfort, his message was to swap out the less healthy ingredients for more, eating healthily not by taking stuff out of them, but by putting more in. This time, he's upped his game and using the best of the latest science, he's showing us how to eat 30 different plants a week.

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall has long been passionate about food – not just about what we eat and how we cook it, but about how it's produced and the wider environmental consequences of our appetites. He first appeared on our TV screens in 1995 in A Cook on the Wild Side - foraging for roadkill and frying up woodlouse fritters, earning him the nickname Hugh Fearlessly-Eats-it-all.He went on to document his early attempts as a smallholder trying to produce seasonal, ethical food in the River Cottage series on Channel 4. Out of this came the highly successful River Cottage Cookbook. Over two dozen books have followed – the latest of which is How to Eat 30 Plants a Week. He's also enjoyed success as a food campaigner. Hugh's Fish Fight brought about changes in fisheries law at the European level, Britain's Fat Fight examined the national obesity crisis and War on Waste challenged supermarkets and the fast food industry to change how they operate. Hugh's music choices include Beethoven, Schubert, Verdi and Keith Jarrett.
No touch pod! Andy & Alex are actually on location at Athelhampton House - Harrison Chase's mansion - for this their review of the Tom Baker classic The Seeds of Doom. Specifically this episode of the podcast was recorded at River Cottage, THE 'cottage under siege' where Keeler also transformed into a Krynoid. They find much to enjoy here including the Doctor's anti-establishment behaviour, his wonderful relationship with Sarah - a Doctor and companion team at the very height of their powers, and a wondrous supporting cast including, of course, Tony Beckley, John Challis and Sylvia Coleridge. Along the way they question whether Harrison Chase hates plant-eaters more than meat-eaters, whether its inimical or inimicable (it's both if you look at the script), and whether Chase actually has sexual communion with the big Krynoid? Although like the Doctor they do so hate guided tours, they finish the episode ahead of a private guided tour of Athelhampton sadly without any Floriana requiem. Next Time: Evil of the Daleks

What is your perspective on food? Do you place a high priority on its provenance, ethics, and animal welfare? There is no doubt we have read, researched, gotten it wrong, and gotten it right. This week, I talked with Tim Maddams about how he worked with others to raise awareness of food production issues while at River Cottage and afterwards. Taking a closer look at the future of agriculture, we examine current food production methods. Tim isn't new to big food fights. He has questioned leading voices, including policymakers, business leaders, food producers, and campaigners, about some of the issues facing farming systems around the world, such as organic farming, sustainability, and food systems, so people who care about food will know where they get their food from and how they get it grown. In addition to exploring both advanced and beginner topics, we examine the interaction between traditional methods and current trends in the field of food. Join us as we discuss cost-sensitive solutions to living sustainably in this episode of series 2. It's good for you, good for your wallet, and it's good for the environment!

Lani is a well known coffee-writer and global food industry consultant, and has has published best-selling coffee books in the USA, Finland, Sweden, China, Korea, Thailand and the UK. In her work, she has written about the history of what a third place is through the lens of the coffee shop. She has over a decade of experience in every corner of the food industry (and every corner of the world), including serving as a barista in London.This interview is a lot of fun and shows how important third places are in our lives. After talking with Lani, we would even say that to fully live this human experience is to include finding your own Third Place.*******www.lanikingston.comIn addition to writing books about coffee, Lani has written culinary articles for a range of print magazines and newspapers; set-up and managed London's largest bean-to-bar chocolate factory; headed up a cooking school run entirely with ‘food waste'; worked as one of Chef Dan Barber's senior managers at his World 50 Best Restaurant Blue Hill at Stone Barns in Upstate New York; judged food and coffee for the UK's prestigious annual Great Taste Awards; set up food brands and retail stores in Singapore; and traveled and researched food production and preparation all around the world.With over a decade of experience in every corner of the industry (and every corner of the world), Lani saw first hand where food businesses were most in need of support. In response, she started a global food and beverage support agency, Four Seasons of Food, offering on-call, highly experienced and affordable staff for the movers and shakers of the food world.What Lani loves most about her work is that she never stops exploring and learning. Throughout her career, she's been lucky enough to bake pies in English bakeries, learn about hunting reindeer from Fäviken's gunsmith, tap maple trees in Wisconsin, mill flour in an 1800's Lincolnshire windmill, cook Peranakan cakes with Singaporean grandmothers, eat rattlesnake in the Arizona desert, forage for wild food at River Cottage, spend Swedish Midsummer on a potato farm, venture deep under the streets of London to harvest herbs from disused Air Raid bunkers, harvest cacao with local farmers in the hills of Kerala, India – and much more!*******The Third Place Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners into the hard conversations that we have a tendency to avoid.We “go there” on things such as…How anger is beautifulHow to find presence amidst chaosHow to have difficult conversationsHow to be an allyHow to live with griefThe Third Place is a safe place where curiosity is encouraged, differences are welcomed, and empathy is embraced through healthy dialogue.We've forgotten how to talk to each other… Life has become polarized and dualistic - you're either with me or against me. To embrace the complex human experience is to see the world through other's eyes. The Third Place podcast helps with the disconnect. This looks like less conflict and tension and more like a peaceful existence with others. The Third Place podcast restores the art of dialogue.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-third-place/donations

Surprise! We are back with another BONUS episode for you!My guest today is Tom Gozney.Tom is an entrepreneur and designer, he is the founder of Gozney. Gozney for those who don't know, make incredible outdoor ovens and the business really is taking the world by storm.Tom started out designing a brick pizza oven for his back garden in 2008, and by 2014 was supplying professional ovens to some of the UK's leading restaurants including Chewton Glen, River Cottage and pizza chain Franco Manca. But his domestic ovens have also collected a loyal following of very famous fans including Tom Aikens, Paul Hollywood, the founder of Instagram, Mike Krieger, and Richard Branson – who flew Tom out to his personal island: Necker Island to build one. Tom had in his own words, a “colourful youth” and might not necessarily be the stereotypical entrepreneur. He moved from school to school after being expelled and was constantly told he would amount to nothing. After battling with alcohol and drug addiction, he used his passion for food to turn his life around and proved all his teachers wrong. Despite not really being one for material possessions, by the age of 29 he was able to fulfil one of his dreams and to buy himself his dream car - a Lamborghini. Not too shabby for someone teachers told just a few years earlier was on a road to nowhere.--Thank you to Gozney for sponsoring today's episode.

You've probably heard of illicit hooch being brewed up in prisons but what about unlawful yoghurt? From secretive beginnings in a cell in Rangipo Prison, two inmates got so good at making the dairy product, it was smuggled to prisoners across the country. The original recipe was inspired by an episode of the English cooking show, The River Cottage. Now, with a little RNZ help, host Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall has met the former meth addicts who became known as 'The Yoghurt Mafia'. Eva Corlett with this story of an unexpected prison culture.

Introducing A Life More Wild, a podcast that will transport you into the great outdoors and help you connect with nature.

We'll also be bringing you the stories of the people behind some of our most amazing places to stay, from the Cumbrian man who stuck a camper van to a bus, to the couple looking to turn back time on their land in Cornwall with an incredibly ambitious project including the reintroduction of beavers to the UK.

We chat with Tim Maddams about life as a Chef, Author and Podcaster. Tim has always had a passion for food which he developed from a young age watching his mum create fantastic dishes from local ingredients. Tim's food ethos is all about locally grown and responsibly sourced ingredients, he talks us through his career at a number of different establishments, from working for Marco Pierre White in London to his four year stint at River Cottage alongside Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. Tim gives a very honest account about his time in the industry, it is by no means an easy career path to take, and when Tim was starting out in the industry there was certainly an expectation that as a chef you would devote every waking second to your work which would often strain relationships at home and lead to burn out very quickly. Professional kitchens have changed a lot since Tim left with more and more establishments valuing their staff, paying them more fairly and creating environments that foster growth. Tim gives some brilliant advice to any aspiring chefs, from knowing your own value to finding a place of work that will foster your passion for food and help to increase your skill set. Being a chef Its a tough career path, with lots of ups and downs but if you have a passion for food and the drive to do well, it can be incredibly rewarding. A real pleasure to chat with Tim.

As we continue with lockdown in Scotland I’m delighted that Nev Kilkenny a fungi specialist and mycologist takes time out of his foraging day to join me for a chat. Nev leads many foraging forays around the country throughout the year discovering the amazing diversity of fungi and runs workshops both for beginners and those who wish to develop their interest. Nev’s expertise is often called in to help raise awareness of fungi with organisations such as The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE), TCV, Plantlife Scotland & Scottish Natural Heritage. From foraging to gin making this is quite a diverse podcast and a conversation I hope you will enjoy.Nev will be running a range of forays and workshops in the autumn for dates and booking please check out his website – www.fungi.co.uk Recommended books for fungi beginners are John Wright’s River Cottage mushroom book – it has a key and Nev likes books with keys! So the key Nev uses for workshops is this one by Paul Nichol, in conjunction with Roger Phillips’s Book will take you a long way.And finally a link to all things fungi in Scotland - Scottish Fungi – there’s links there to all the recording groups in Scotland and lots of other information, including the diagnostic flowchart that I created to advise the National Poisons Information Service about mushroom poisoning. Just before we get started a couple of housekeeping notes this week, if you are looking for a face mask as we exit lockdown please get in touch with Nibble Scotland via social media to order directly. Currently we have in stock Noordi face masks which are antibacterial, washable and available in 4 colours for adult and children costing £6 each – most importantly they are cost effective and practical in our new environment tackling Covid-19.

This episode is a great opportunity to hear more about Angela’s own journey and why she is so passionate about empowering others to optimise their health. Angela has a background as a successful Corporate Lawyer but is now on a journey to find out everything she can about health and how we can all use our DNA and genetics to positively influence and optimise our health. Your health is the foundation of everything you do, listen in and hear about what you can start doing now to build the right foundations and optimise your own health. KEY TAKEAWAYS Optimised health is the foundation of sustained performance. Depression is a silent disease and many people try to hide it and carry on with their everyday lives. Meditation is a practice that can help in giving you space between the stimulus and the response. Medical science has got us to a point where we are going to live for longer whether we want to or not and people want to live a long life and live it well enjoying the things they’ve enjoyed in early life all the way through. Control of the epigenetics is key and if we understand key parts of our DNA then we can positively influence the expression of those genes. We now need to really understand our genetic data and how we can use it as part of our daily lives. We need to empower people so that they can optimise their own health Sleep is the best performance-enhancing tool we have and not prioritising sleep has a huge impact on our health. Your body is not only affected by what you eat but also by the amount of light you get and your level of hydration. There are many things you can do to improve and optimise your health and well-being that have no cost.

With the continuing backdrop of hospitality recognising just how hard it is going to be to open up post lockdown I’m catching up with Steven Lamb. Steven is particularly well known for having worked with River Cottage right from it’s foundation years, and now makes a living consulting, presenting, training, writing and more. As a freelancer falling between the gaps of all personal and business support in this crisis I wanted to see what Steven was doing to try and navigate a way through the challenges. Particularly his moves into the online world trying to run virtual food festivals, online training, and a health and well being site ‘slow life good life’. I love this sector for it’s speed of creativity, optimism and can do attitude to pivot and find a way through whatever it takes. I hope conversations with the likes of Steve provide a bit of inspiration on standing up and thinking outside the box so that we don’t all just end up sobbing and rocking in a corner. Enjoy the conversation.

The third and final instalment of our special smoke series to celebrate the third birthday of our grill restaurant Honey & Smoke. In this episode we had the wonderful Gill Meller join us all the way from Dorset. First we head into the kitchen with Sarit and Itamar to cook up some lamb chops and plums on the grill, a favourite here at Honey & Smoke over the last 3 years and talk about their love of fire growing up! Then they chat to Gill Meller, the chef, cookbook author and fellow fire-lover who joined us to celebrate our 3rd and final party for the 3rd birthday of Honey & Smoke! Gill talks about his experiments with fire and cooking outside growing up, bringing this to River Cottage and the different techniques he uses, from nailing fish to planks to wrapping food in clay. We ate a gorgeous meal including focaccia bread with bacon & herbs, homemade cheese with herbs, clay baked onions, grilled cabbage with carraway & garlic butter and wood roast lamb shoulder and finished with gorgeous honey and coriander cakes. Such a memorable meal! We were so happy to welcome fire-loving chefs Olia Hercules, Ben Chapman and Gill Meller to celebrate with us! We hope you enjoyed the series.

If I say ‘River Cottage’ to you, what comes to mind? Perhaps one of its campaigns: Fish Fight, or Chicken Out or War on Waste. Or maybe you’ve got one of the River Cottage handbooks, diving deep into foodie topics, from cheese to charcuterie. That’s the striking thing about River Cottage and its team: the variety of what they do. What started as a docu-drama, following Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s attempts to set up his own smallholding 20 years ago, has now grown into a cookery and chefs’ school; three award-winning kitchens and the base for amazing banquet-style get-togethers. Steven Lamb has been part of that journey, pretty much from the beginning. He arrived as the team’s new media expert, helping to build its presence online. But nowadays he’s better known as the Cottage’s curing and smoking guru, as well as its expert on cheese and dairy. This is the second part of our two part conversation, so if you've not listened to part one yet, maybe start there.

Growing up in Mumbai, Maunika absorbed the rich variety of her mother’s Indian home-cooking, and when Maunika moved to the UK as a young woman, she started cooking family recipes to ease her cravings for proper Indian meals. Word of Maunika’s fantastic dishes quickly spread, kickstarting her career as a private chef. Over the years, Maunika has become an established authority on Indian cuisine. She is a contributing editor for Vogue India, where she shares the latest stories and tips from the international Indian food scene. Maunika also hosts regular cooking workshops, teaching classes at Jamie’s Cook School in London and River Cottage in Dorset. Maunika shares her delicious recipes through her hugely popular website, social media channels and recipe app, Maunika’s Indian Recipes, which has remained in the top 10 recommended apps since its launch. Her cookbook, Indian Kitchen, is a real favourite of mine and brings together many of her family favourite recipes, several of which are inspired by the dishes her Grandmother created. I had a wonderful time chatting to Maunika about how her childhood influenced her love for food, the incredible regional variety in Indian cuisine, the exciting changes that have taken place within the Indian restaurant scene in London over the past decade, and so much more.

On the final weekend in May, we're heading to Axminster for the River Cottage Festival. Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's esteemed establishment celebrates their 20th anniversary this year, so it's a pleasure and a delight that we're able to go along and take them some very fine non-alcoholic drinks. In the run-up to this, we've been chatting with some of the people closely associated with what River Cottage is doing. Last month we chatted with foodie mastermind, Gelf Alderson, and this month it's the turn of their fermentation expert, Rachel De Thample. Known initially as a chef, then as a journalist, she is also known for her previous work with Abel & Cole, for her urban foraging passions and for her books.She'll be hosting a panel discussion involving Real Kombucha founder, David Begg, at the festival, but before that, we caught up with Rachel in her kitchen as she put the finishing touches to the latest River Cottage handbook. Touching on all things fermented, we were keen to get her take on the resurgence of interest in this style of food preparation. While we don't ever flavour our brews here at Real Kombucha, we nonetheless find it fascinating when someone as skilled and experimental as Rachel starts digging around and looking at what might be possible. We arrived at her flat to find something akin to a laboratory, with our interviewee sat in the middle of it all brandishing what looked like a cheesecake. And that's where our conversation began...

Ben met Gina during a demonstration of how to make a fermented tea called Kombucha, at a small food fair run by River Cottage down in Axminster. He was fascinated by the process of this magical gut reviving drink but also in her passion and clarity of the presentation. Ben caught up with Gina a couple of weeks later to find out about her company Wild Fizz and how she got started. Sadly they could only talk over a mobile phone line, so the quality of the recording is a little scratchy but Gina’s story and openness on her business are well worth listening to.

Kirsty Young's castaway is the food writer and cook Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. Famous for making paté out of placenta and dining on such delicacies as squirrel and rook in his TV programmes, he has made a name for himself as a cook on the wild side. So perhaps it is not surprising that his first ambition was not to spend his life inside a kitchen but in the great outdoors because, he says, he 'wanted to be David Attenborough'.A stint in the renowned River Cafe in London, however, set him on his way to establishing his own waterside haven for food lovers, his River Cottage in Dorset. From there, he has followed his passion for the environment by campaigning for ethically-produced food, including championing a creature not normally given time on our small screens - the humble supermarket chicken.[Taken from the original programme material for this archive edition of Desert Island Discs]Favourite track: Love Reign O'er Me by The Who Book: Moby Dick by Herman Melville Luxury: Full set of Scuba gear.
