Matt Preston travels Australia's and New Zealand's food regions, uncovering the stories, landscapes and passionate producers behind the ingredients that define each place.
"Preston begins on Western Australia's wild southwest coast, where abalone is farmed on living ocean reefs and generations of winemakers have helped shape one of Australia's best-known food regions. He walks through heritage hand-pruned vineyards, meets the people behind the region's celebrated produce and cooks marron with foraged coastal herbs on a remote cape overlooking the ocean."
"Preston spends time with the people continuing the Barossa's rich food and wine traditions. He visits Adelaide's Cheesefest, meets a world-class butter maker and explores the region's renowned vineyards before creating a dish inspired by the local produce."
"Preston heads to the Fleurieu Peninsula for episode three, where McLaren Vale's vineyards meet the sea. Here, he gathers pipis from the shallows, visits a family-run garlic farm and cooks roast lamb beneath a stunning sunset. This episode reflects the close connection between the Fleurieu Peninsula's coastline, farmland and vineyards, and the ingredients they produce."
