The celebrity chef urges viewers to grow their own vegetables on the new series, and he believes that they will take heed of his advice when they see how easy and enjoyable it is.
"I think some of the worst problems we've had in cooking, not just in terms of health, but in the flavour, have been about being disconnected from where our food comes from," Oliver told the Manchester Evening News. "It sounds rather worthy, but just put a packet of seeds in the ground, grow it into something, and you will just love it. It connects you with the ground.
"I know I sound like a hippy, but growing stuff has completely changed the way I think about food and cooking."
Jamie At Home continues tonight at 8pm on Channel 4.
