Life After Lockdown

Available for over a year

Ruth Sanderson talks to farmers attempting to future-proof their businesses in a time of crisis. She catches up with the Hamilton family in County Down, Northern Ireland, who've been employing furloughed people locally to help get their vegetable crops in the ground. Truffle expert and commercial grower, Paul Thomas on the Isle of Bute in Scotland, says lockdown has stopped his truffle hunting dogs getting on to farms. And pig farmer Alastair Crown tells Ruth how his charcuterie business nearly went under. Producer: Beatrice Fenton
