Plant-Based Living in Provence | Margo de Groot

Link for the show notes

In today’s episode of The World Vegan Travel Podcast, we’ll be talking to Margo de Groot Coenen, a plant-based chef and the founder of Picnic en Provence, a vegan culinary experience based in the heart of southern France. Margo shares her personal journey from a high-powered career in conference management to building a life around food, hospitality, and compassion in the picturesque region of Provence.

We’ll be chatting about what inspired her to make such a big change, how Provence’s traditional cuisine is naturally suited to plant-based cooking, and what it’s like navigating veganism in a country so deeply rooted in animal-based culinary traditions. Margo also gives us a feel for daily life in Provence — from seasonal markets and scenic hilltop villages to the best times of year to visit.

Whether you’re curious about vegan travel in France or simply want a taste of Provençal life, this episode is a must-listen.
