Let plant-whisperer extraordinaire Peter Gilmore (Quay, Bennelong) lead you down the garden path, in the best and tastiest of ways, as he talks about the wide world of heirloom vegetables and forgotten seeds. In conversation with his friend and supplier Palisa Anderson of Boon Luck Farm and Chat Thai, Gilmore talks about the many vegetable varieties that are overlooked, where he finds inspiration for his dishes and why he's so passionate about reviving species that have nearly been lost.

If you love gardening, trawl seed websites for fun, or you're a fan of Gilmore's food, this episode of Melbourne Food & Wine is essential listening.
