River Cottage: Australia

In over a year Paul’s farm has grown from a hobby farm to a serious small holder but without proper infrastructure he needs plan for the future.

There’s trouble on Paul’s farm and his goats go missing. Plus he’s questioning Bessie’s future & needs to find out if she’s pregnant.

Tough times for Paul when he asks home butcher & friend Matt to help him slaughter his first goat. When Paul helps to rebuild a community garden the goat goes to a good cause.

In an attempt to make a quicker profit Paul decides to add hens & honey to his farm – so goes on a road trip to find out how. Digger proves he’s got the nose for truffle hunting.

Paul welcomes visitors to the farm. His Dad arrives for the 1st time & they go on a camping trip to hunt feral deer.

Paul goes on a wild bee hunt & builds a hive for the farm. And faces the hard task of taking his first pigs born and raised on the farm to the abattoir.

Paul learns about catching eels from indigenous local & chef Noel Butler and sells his first eggs & veggie boxes into Tilba.

To welcome the start of summer Paul hosts a cricket match at RCA to celebrate the start of summer and share his produce with his friends.
