Matthew is a chef and food critic turned farmer-food activist. He lives on a mixed farm that occupies a one-time apple orchard in the Huon Valley outside Hobart with his partner Sadie Chrestman and son Hedley. He is best known nationally for his long-running SBS series Gourmet Farmer, set on Fat Pig Farm's 70 acres. He has authored or co-authored 13 books, his most recent 'Soil' being the focus of our conversation today.
