For this one, I got to sit down with Shaun Krijnen on the beach in Brynsiencyn, just up from the mussel and oyster beds. We talked about how Shaun got into the industry, and the many many difficulties he's faced running a shellfish farming business for over three decades - not limited to, but including, climate change, cost of living crisis, financial crashes, and general attitude towards shellfish farming. I really enjoyed this one, and I hope you do, too!  

This time, I sit down with Jane Evans at her art studio in Menai Bridge.  As we look over the Menai straits, we talk about how Jane's art practice has developed over the years since gaining her degree in her 40s. Now, as a Gyotaku practitioner, she explores her connection to place through her printing of aquatic life in the straits, and found objects.

I sit with Nathan to talk about the importance of provenance, sustainability and building a transparent coffee brand in north Wales. Unfortunately, there is a noticeable drop in audio quality for the last five minutes of this episode.

I got the chance to sit down with Ceu from Coffi Dre in the middle of the field, and we talked about how he got round to starting his business and his personal motivations for carrying on. This episode is entirely in Welsh.

For my first episode, I sit down with Sioned Pritchard from Snowdonia Wagyu to learn a bit more about sustainability on the farm and how traditional methods have met with modern innovations to revolutionise Welsh farming.  This episode is entirely in Welsh.
