Massimo tells us about how he felt when he returned to Tasmania, and how he had to work hard to carve out a niche. As he settled back into Tasmanian life, he made the effort to step outside of the kitchen and explore the state, its products and got to know the producers. He's had interesting conversations with farmers and ag consultants about regenerative agriculture along the way. He speaks to Kate about how these conversations have informed the way he works with producers, and how these relationships have changed the way he manages his kitchen.
