About Persephone
A deeper connection with food, the seasons and each other.
Persephone is an Australian seasonal food guide that helps people understand their food and feel more confident cooking it. Its vision is a more food-literate Australia.
Founded by Mark Bennett, Persephone brings together 15 years as a professional chef with an environmental-science perspective. It helps readers understand seasonal produce, build cooking confidence and see the systems connecting farms to dinner tables.
By making useful food knowledge easier to put into practice, Persephone contributes to a richer, more connected Australian food culture.
