Has anyone been watching River Cottage on SBS?
I have never had pay TV so I never knew it was on that media. I just found it 2wks ago on SBS.
It is unusual for something as interesting as RCA to get by me so thoroughly undetected!
I thought that young chef Paul West, seemed to have fallen on his feet on that VERY nice soil down Tilba way.
Green, with envy I am, mmm! Said in my best Yoda voice!
He just pops those seedlings in the ground & they boom away. Oh I hate it
In the first episode when Hugh arrived, Paul made a starter for his sour dough from just flour & water & let it ferment on the kitchen bench.
Now he makes fantastic bread from that same starter batch.
So while I've been writing this post, I have also googled it & I see Paul never owned it & that he has a family stashed away in another town! The farm is up for sale due to the ending of the show.

Always sad when quality local programs get the flick. But I will enjoy watching all 64 episodes! At least at the end I will already know the final story which is more than I can say for several other series I have watched then hunted high & low for, only to be disappointed.
On that note, Mathew Evens "Gourmet Farmer" in Tasmania is back for another series. I like watching this one too.
