Description

Mark Diacono is one of the most well-known people you may not actually have heard of. First and foremost, he’s a full-on foodie: from being part of the original crew at Hugh Fearnley-Wittingstall’s River Cottage, to hosting the Café Murano Book Club with renowned chef Angela Hartnett, collaborating with the Pig Hotels, to presenting at RHS shows. He is also the founder of Otter Farm nursery in Devon.

Author of award-winning books, Mark has written and/or photographed 14 books on food and kitchen gardening, both for himself and for River Cottage. A superb cook and hugely knowledgeable gardener, Mark’s great sense of humour (and obsession with endless music references) make him not only a must-read author, but a must-see speaker.

Join us at The View for this exclusive interview, hosted by Chris Young, covering all things food, writing, gardening and so much more – doubtless, with a fabulous soundtrack from Mark as accompaniment, and enjoy a cocktail and canapes from Mark’s own recipes.

If you don’t yet have one of Mark’s wonderful books, we’ll have four of his titles available to purchase on the night. He’ll be most happy to sign any that you bring from home, or any that are purchased that evening.
