Clodagh McKenna is a chef, TV presenter, bestselling cookbook author and entrepreneur who runs Broadspear, her 100acre sustainable farm in the English countryside. She is the author of nine cookbooks, including the bestselling titles In Minutes and Clodagh’s Happy Cooking, and is a muchloved resident chef on ITV’s This Morning. Her new TV show, Clodagh Cooking at Home, airs this October on ITV, bringing viewers even closer to her life, recipes and entertaining at Broadspear.

Over the past eight years at Broadspear, Clodagh and her husband Harry have transformed the land into a thriving, regenerative smallholding. They have restored a oneacre eighteenthcentury walled vegetable and fruit garden, planted an orchard, established five working beehives and created wildflower meadows, cutting gardens and a pickling and fermenting shed. The farm is home to their hens, ducks, woodland pigs and Aberdeen Angus cattle, and it provides the inspiration and ingredients for Clodagh’s seasonal recipes, entertaining ideas and homegrown lifestyle.

On screen, Clodagh has hosted five of her own television series, including Fresh from the Farmers’ Markets and Fresh from the Sea, and she won ITV’s Cooking with the Stars in 2022. Her warm, cando approach has made her a trusted voice for anyone who wants to cook delicious food, celebrate the seasons and bring people together around the table, whether on busy weeknights or for big, joyful occasions.

As an entrepreneur, Clodagh is the founder of the Clodagh Store, her online lifestyle destination that brings the spirit of Broadspear into people’s homes. Curated with the same care she applies to her cooking and hosting, the store features pieces for the kitchen and table, seasonal homeware and thoughtful gifts that reflect her love of craftsmanship, comfort and sustainable living. It is an extension of her ethos: to help people create homes that feel welcoming, livedin and ready to entertain at a moment’s notice.

Clodagh has also built a large, engaged digital community who turn to her for everyday inspiration and escapism. Her upbeat recipe reels, glimpses of life on the farm and behindthescenes moments from her kitchen have earned her a dedicated following on Instagram, where she shares as @clodagh_mckenna. She continues the conversation on her YouTube channel too, with longerform videos that dive deeper into recipes, seasonal projects and life at Broadspear, inviting viewers to cook along, slow down and find joy in the simple rituals of home.
