After his bees mysteriously disappeared last year, Marcus and gardener Anatoliy decide they need some advice.\n\nMarcus travels to the Newt to meet Paula and learn more about beekeeping. Energised from their meeting, he returns to the farm to plant some pollinating flowers while Anatoliy is busy picking a glut of home-grown gooseberries ready for Marcus to pickle.\n\nMarcus also has his Mangalitsa pigs in mind; he wants to move them to a new area of the woods, where they’ll have more shelter and vegetation to forage. Pig farmer Flavian comes round to help scope out and prepare a new area and coax the pigs across the woods.\n\nOnce the pigs are settled, Marcus cooks up a delicious vegetarian feast in his kitchen garden.
