River Cottage

In 1999 Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall decided to quit the bustle of London and take on the life of a smallholder at River Cottage, a former gamekeeper's cottage in Dorset. The aim: self-sufficiency; to grow his own vegetables and raise his own animals for food. Over the years several series have been produced covering his experiences and watching his rural empire grow.

1999-ben Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall úgy döntött maga mögött hagyja a nagy városi életet és London helyett Dorsetben vesz földet ahol kisgazdaként folytatja életét. Célja az önellátás, hogy saját zöldségeit termelje meg, állatokat tartson. A műsorban mindeközben a saját maga által termelt zöldségekből és húsokból készít ételeket.
