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.
