A Former Chef Takes Center Stage

In a recent episode, former London chef Mitch McCulloch made an appearance on Gardeners' World, showcasing the produce he is growing in his Hampshire garden. McCulloch, who is both an avid gardener and cook, displayed a wide variety of vegetables, including tomatoes, cucumbers, aubergines, and even celery.

A Wholesome and Sustainable Lifestyle

Enthusiasm and Admiration

Viewers praised his knowledge, tips, and the way he shared stories about the history and importance of different types of produce. Many fans are now calling for him to become a regular presenter on the show.

Inspiring a New Generation

Some viewers believe that adding McCulloch to the roster of presenters would help inspire younger generations to get involved in gardening. They see his unique perspective as a former chef bringing valuable insights and ideas to the world of vegetable growing.

Celebrating Celery

One particular highlight of McCulloch's appearance was his passion for celery. He made a case for bringing this often undervalued vegetable back into "fashion," and viewers rallied behind his call.
