Hello, I’m Louise FitzRoy – author of ‘From Paddock to Plate’ and ABC (Australia) radio journalist. A born and bred country girl, join me on this journey to reveal the latest trends, news and information about fresh produce.
I’ll help you decide what seasonal ingredients to put in your next salad, as well as reveal old traditional recipes passed down through the generations using popular, exotic and unusual vegetables.
Producers will also share their expertise in growing and harvesting as well as telling us how their product literally gets from the paddock to the plate.
