Welcome back to Fields and Feasts — the podcast where farming folklore meets foodie fun, all delivered with muddy boots, sharp tongues, and a healthy respect for the seasons.
In this Valentine’s special, Miranda Webster and Matt Hardy turn their attention to love in the countryside — from old rural superstitions to the shifting light of February and what it means for both hearts and harvests. There’s seasonal chat, a touch of bird-based matchmaking folklore, and Matt’s latest Field Phrase reminding us why a wet February might just be a farmer’s greatest love story.
Mystery Munch continues the wassailing thread as Miranda finally delivers on her promise: Matt samples her father Nick’s homemade cider. We head out on tour to hear from the man himself as he talks through his cider production — from pressing and fermenting to blending sweet and sharp apples — proving that patience, pressure, and a decent recipe can yield something rather special. The verdict? You’ll have to listen.
Elsewhere, Feasts or Farce returns with more historic food oddities, rural romance traditions surface once again, and the pair debate whether Valentine’s Day is best expressed through herbs, sheep, baked goods… or simply a very dry scrumpy.
As ever, it’s affectionate chaos with an agricultural backbone.
So whether you’re celebrating with cider, courting with folklore, or just waiting for the light to properly return to the fields, join Miranda and Matt as they continue unearthing the weird, the seasonal, and the wonderfully romantic corners of Britain’s food and farming traditions.
