Year's End
Max Cotton tries to complete a year of total food self-sufficiency on his tiny farm in Somerset. He wants to test to destruction our ideas of eating seasonally and locally.
Max Cotton, a retired political journalist, leaves behind the weekly shop, supermarkets and the modern world to find out if he can grow and produce 100% of his food on a smallholding near Glastonbury. His only import for a year is salt.
This is the final episode and marks the end of Max’s food self-sufficient year. Did he make it? Did he cheat? Did he lose weight? Was it too hard to be fun? All these questions are answered. This episode also explores some of the issues of trying to eat locally and seasonally.
