River Cottage Australia (2013)
Fifteen years ago, English celebrity chef, television personality, food writer and campaigner on food and environmental issues Hugh-Fearnley-Whittingstall embarked on an experiment in sustainability and self-sufficiency. He moved to a cottage on a small land-holding in Dorset, and set about learning how to grow his own produce, raise livestock, and become part of a community where sharing not only knowledge, but the fruits of farm labour, were an important part of life.

His cows, pigs and veggies all depend on a steady supply, so Paul enlists the help of a local farmer to see if they can tap on old spring on the property. Meanwhile, as Paul settles into his new rural community, he discovers one of the joys of country life - the local food swap. Armed with seafood he’s foraged nearby, Paul scores a boxful of unusual fruits, vegetables and wild game, which he uses to create a hearty winter meal.

Paul's dream is to one day make River Cottage Australia self-sufficient, and he's well on the way. With his own herbs, vegetables, eggs and cream from Bessie the cow, he whips up his first ever 'all from the farm' meal. But not all is going so well. Flies are a constant issue, especially in Paul's country kitchen. She meets a local sustainable farmer who introduces him to an ingenious all-natural solution. Down by the coast, it's Oyster Festival time. Paul tries his hand at the oyster shucking contest and then creates a traditional coastal favourite, a delicious oyster pie.

The local CWA ladies have a big job for Paul and there might be a sweet reward in return. If he can help them paint their headquarters, they've offered to share some of their cake–making secrets with him. How will his Hazelnut Loaf cake stand up against some of the finest in the district? Back on the farm, Paul's been collecting old chook feathers, but what on earth for? Could there be something fishy going on? And as we head to the coast nearby, Paul learns that there's more to seaweed than meets the eye. Not only is it good for the garden, he has an idea for a crispy new recipe.

It's been nearly four months since Hugh returned to River Cottage in the UK to let Paul do it alone. But now he's back, and he's amazed at what he finds. Where there used to be rundown enclosures and sheds, there are now homes for chickens, ducks, pigs and a dairy cow. The vegetable beds they laid out together are now a mass of leafy winter greens, and the citrus grove is thriving. They decide to harvest what they can as a starting point for a huge community cook-up they've got planned. But they’ll need more food to feed the hungry throng. At the beach, Paul instructs Hugh in the fine art of beach-worm catching. Will they be able to catch the bait, let alone enough fish for a feed?
