Series 1 Compilations: 4. Episode 4

Marcus develops plans to create a orchard and bring in the perfect eating apple for his favourite dessert, the classic tarte Tatin. A trip to Kent introduces him to the wide range of heritage apples available in the UK, as well as giving him some tips and tricks on how to grow his own.

Back at the farm, he gets a lesson on attracting pollinators and discovers there is a whole world of edible flowers out there if you know what to look for. He also cooks up some incredible Indian-style chutneys with a glut from the kitchen garden. Once his new apple trees are planted, it’s time to celebrate with his own version of the classic French dessert Marcus loves so much.

Next, he decides to bring in some sheep in order to produce his favourite meat, lamb. A trip to his native Lancashire introduces him to the amazing Lonk sheep, who are famed for their delicious meat.

At the smallholding, while waiting for his new sheep to arrive, Marcus learns about growing your own spices from chilli enthusiast Mothin and batches up some tomato sauce to share at the local food bank. Once his sheep have arrived, he cooks up a meaty feast for the people who have helped him along the way.
