About this episode

Mark Diacono discusses his journey of reconnecting with nature through food and personal reflection.

Mark Diacono has always grown, cooked and written about food. But despite a life lived in and around nature, he felt disconnected. A simple weekly diary helped him get back in touch with the natural world and himself, and an even simpler soup helped him cope with being “happily heartbroken”.
