The Festive Plate
Dec 19, 2022 Episode 3

Over the festive period people come together with friends, family and sometimes strangers to celebrate. Food plays an essential role in all our celebrations and the festive plate is the outcome of hard work and dedication from our farmers. We caught up with 3 farming families who supply our food from the traditional turkey to the carrots and sprouts that adorn our plates. We also reflect on just how different Christmas will be for some people around the world this year. We spoke to an Agricultural Economist and refugee from Ukraine who tells us about the special food, moments, and traditions she shares with her family and her plans to travel back to Kyiv to be with them this Christmas.
