    Glen Barnish, the Lobsterman of Barmouth

    This time I get to sit down with Glen Barnish, the lobsterman of Barmouth. Just 28, Glen has been fishing out of Barmouth harbour for about 10 years. He first came to the area as a child, then built his life around the sea. By eighteen, he’d bought a boat, made his own pots by hand, and learned the trade through experience, patience, and countless hours on the water.

    Huw Foulkes, Pentrefelin Dairy

    This time, on a drizzly Sunday afternoon in February, I got to sit down with Huw Foulkes from Pentrefelin Dairy - a special farm just outside of Denbigh, in Llandyrnog. As well as all the brilliant work he's done over the past six or seven years, Huw also helped launch fully funded courses for 18 to 25-year-olds, covering everything from hedge laying to practical farming skills, through a social enterprise called Landlinked.

    Joe Sheppard-Brown, Slate Coffee Eduation

    This time i get to speak to Joe, who runs Slate Coffee Education down in Dinas Mawddwy. Joe has travelled the world over competing in latte art competitions, and soaking up everything he can about the coffee industry. After traveling from Canada, to Australia, and back to the UK, he eventually turned to wholesaling and education within Clifton Coffee (after training to teach in Vienna). Now, he runs Slate Coffee Education in North Wales. A really knowledgable and kind person, I really enjoyed this one.

    Andrianos Poulis, Mountain Restaurant, London

    I got to sit down with Andrianos to talk about how he found his way from Athens to one of London’s most exciting kitchens, and what that shaped him along the way. After relocating to London, he spent over a year working across Ottolenghi’s restaurants - now, Andrianos is senior sous to Anglesey-born chef Tomos Parry at his Soho Mountain restaurant. Recorded in my mum's back garden in North Wales, birds and all!

    Glenn Lloyd, Daisy Bank Dairy & Trefaldwyn Cheese

    Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus! This time, I get to speak to third-generation dairy farmer, Glenn Lloyd, at his family farm in Montgomery. As well as running Daisy Bank Dairy, he also owns Trefaldwyn Cheese (a very delicious cheese if you've not had a chance to try it!). The audio for this episode comes from an iphone that was sat between us, as the original audio file was lost on a corrupted hard drive. Some interference may be noticable.
