Summary

Dame Prue Leith is a chef and pioneering businesswoman, creator of a world-leading cookery school, author of so many inspiring recipe books, a prolific novelist, a campaigner, broadcaster - and formidable judge on Great British Bake Off and now lead judge of the B&Q Gardener of the Year competition. And of course, she is a true gardener. She’s not only opened her beautiful Cotswolds garden for charity over many years, she has now embarked in her 80s on creating a brand-new garden for herself and husband John to enjoy. With nearly 200 trees already planted in their new patch, we joined her at home to discover why she is always looking ahead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
