One of these bellies is not like the other ones. Two need a diet, one needs a rest. So, is your hospitality job making you thin? Are you running too much? No time to stop and graze on the rillette? Ring, ring now. Friday, Saturday and Sundays. #dufermier #bunintheoven #goodcountrypaddock #stepawayfromthepate.

Each year I donate to my local primary schools trivia night. This year it has a twist. If you've ever wanted to spend a double shift in a commercial kitchen here's your chance. From collecting produce in the morning all the way through to wiping the stove down at the end of the night. The language may be foul, the conversations fascinating, the pressure intense. Who knows, but it will be a unique insight into our world. All proceeds to Trentham primary. Place Silent Auction Bids prior to Friday the 19th June by emailing [email protected]. Please include Name, Contact Number & Maximum bid

So, on the 6 June, #dufermier is going to a farmers market. #Daylesford, to be exact. We will be selling baguettes, croissants, jam, terrines, rillette and other bits and bobs. Come early, there's only so many xants I can make.

The flagrano. Known as the caviar of beans. For all those people out there that whinge about broadband, try these out. The plants are pulled out, hung and dried, then the pods removed, then shelled, then cooked. There is a lot of labour in some of the things we do, an amazing portion of it done in the garden by #mimbeaumont. Sometimes we need to remember the hands that do all the work growing our food long before it gets to the kitchen. #dufermier #anniesmithers #dmpharvest

It's becoming my city home. I love visiting the @middleparkhotel Winter will feature quinces, duck, pork and possible a little #mangelwurzel

Today marks the day I took over the stewardship of #dufermier two years ago. It's been a culmination of many people's work and beliefs, and for that I thank them for making it is what it is today. In celebration of two years and the #dmpharvest festival I will post pictures of our garden and its produce each day. Today, the #mangelwurzel. There's about 30kg in these two. Hence the forced smile. #anniesmithers
