Following an exciting 3 days of filming at the farm, Woodoaks is going to featured on BBC 1’s Countryfile Show!
The full programme will go out at 5.20pm Sunday December 01st. We’re not going to know what’s made it into the episode but here’s how they’re billing it.
John Craven and Margherita Taylor explore Woodoaks Farm in Hertfordshire, where efforts are under way to restore nature’s balance and reconnect people with farming. John discovers the rural heritage of the farm, which was donated to the Soil Association in 2020, and learns about the vision for its future. He also meets a historian who has unearthed the lost diary of a local farmer, written over 150 years ago, and hears about the wisdom within its pages that still holds true for farming today.
Margherita meets the community of people that are part of daily life on the farm, from the volunteers that make up the compost club to the local bird enthusiasts who follow the feathered fortunes of some of the farm’s wildlife. Away from Woodoaks, Adam reveals the Countryfile Young Countryside Champion finalists.
