North of England

Jimmy's in the north of England, where farmers are fighting back after some tough years. To see how they've done that, he joins in on a hillside sheep round-up, harvests rhubarb by candlelight, and hacks his way through a willow forest destined to produce electricity. Finally, he pits his own rare-breed pork in a public taste-test against meat from a pig claimed to be the most modern in the world.
