Listen "Food From the Valley"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Nature Connects, host Ginnette Sutherland takes us deep into the heart of the Tamar Valley to celebrate and reflect on British Food Fortnight.
Join us as we meet the passionate team behind Tamar Grow Local and visit Wheal Farm, where pasture-raised chickens and fresh vegetables are part of a powerful movement to reconnect people with nature, community, and the food on their plates.
Discover how local food systems are not only nourishing bodies but also restoring biodiversity, building resilience, and sparking joy. From community cook-ups to hedgehog-friendly gardens, this episode is a celebration of how growing, sharing, and cooking food can transform lives and landscapes.
Whether you're a seasoned gardener, a curious foodie, or someone who simply loves nature, this episode will leave you inspired to dig deeper into the power of local food and the wild allies that thrive alongside it.
