Clodagh McKenna is a chef, TV presenter, best-selling cookbook author and entrepreneur who runs Broadspear, her 100-acre sustainable farm in the English countryside.
Clodagh is the author of several cookbooks, including the bestselling titles In Minutes and Clodagh’s Happy Cooking, and is a much-loved resident chef on ITV’s This Morning. Her TV show, Clodagh Cooking at Home, brings viewers even closer to her life, recipes and entertaining at Broadspear.
At Broadspear, Clodagh and her husband Harry have transformed the land into a thriving, regenerative smallholding. They have restored a one-acre eighteenth-century 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 several 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, can-do 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, lived in and ready to entertain at a moment’s notice.
