Matt Chisholm: former TV host talks farming journey in new book The Road to Chatto Creek

from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB

Former TV host and journalist Matt Chisholm believes he's found his place after settling in central Otago. Having left the big cities of Auckland, Chisholm and his family now live on a 29-hectare beef and sheep farm in Chatto Creek. He's written about his new journey - and the lessons he learned on the way - in his new book, The Road to Chatto Creek. He recalls one moment where he gave his daughter an immersive lesson about where food comes from. "He (the butcher) turned up and shot and butchered a cattle beast right in front of our house while a dozen 2-year-olds and their parents watched from outside our living room window."
