#021 Gareth Wyn Jones - Farming, vegans and what it takes to produce real food


Listen Later

Hill farmer Gareth Wyn Jones’ family has farmed the land in Llanfairfechan on the North Wales coast for over 370 years. 

He features regularly on mainstream television including BBC Countryfile, Come Dine with me, Snowdonia 1890, Bafta nominated The Hill Farm and recently on Netflix with Jack Whitehall - “Travels with my Father.”   

Gareth is also a best-selling author, a regularly contributor on social media and is known as the “tweeting famer”. He constantly seeks to educate the public about sustainable / seasonal food, farming, it’s heritage, time honoured traditions and its challenges.  Gareth has also strongly campaigned to protect the Carneddau Mountain Ponies; a rare native breed that have been roaming the Carneddau range since Celtic times.   

Gareth’s ambition is to bridge the gap between towns and the countryside in order that the public understands farming and food production so that they’re able to make a balanced and well-informed choices regarding food.
