Series 2: Episode 9

Marcus Wareing explores new possibilities on his Sussex smallholding. One of his favourite things about the farm is having livestock grazing in the fields. Last year, Marcus obtained two Longhorn cows, but now he is thinking of expanding his herd. So he visits the nearby Buckhurst estate to learn about traditional Sussex cattle and try some of their meat to see if they are the right breed for him. \n\nThen Marcus learns about pond management and how to encourage more wildlife onto the farm. As well as pickling pears and helping Anatoliy pick a bumper crop of lavender. \n\nFinally, it is time to eat, so Marcus cooks an epic steak sandwich using Sussex sirloin and homemade bacon jam, the perfect lunch for Stuart, who is hard at work in the field.
