Mouthful - Smart Talk About Food, Wine & Farming in the North Bay and Beyond
Mouthful launched on November 2, 1995, as an exploration of the farms and foods of Sonoma County. It was based, loosely, on host Michele Anna Jordan's first book, A Cook's Tour of Sonoma. Today, Mouthful continues to focus on the remarkable natural abundance of Sonoma County and the talents of those who work our fertile land, but we branch out, too, not only to surrounding counties but to the state, the country, and beyond. Over the years, guests have included artist, writer, and filmmaker Eleanor Coppola, Chef John Ash, restaurateur Alice Waters, chef Jacques Pepin, Julia Child, chef Eric Ripert, filmmaker Les Blank and hundreds of others, including several return visits by Mouthful's first guest, Steve Garner, co-host of The Good Food Hour on KSRO-AM.
