Gourmet Farmer

Matthew searches for natural ways to nourish his soil using regenerative agriculture so that he can improve the quality of his food.

Matthew thinks about purchasing some goats to deal with the farm's blackberry problem. Sadie trades some excess tomatoes for fermented miso paste.

Matthew starts to tackle Fat Pig Farms' long-term soil health by planting an edible native garden, now that winter is starting to set in. He uses an age-old form of landscaping that will benefit his farm for years to come.

After checking the health of the farm's soil, Matthew tests out new ways to keep his pigs fed. He also uses chicken poop to revitalise the damaged soil in his pig paddock.

Matthew has got his work cut out for him with Sadie and Hedley away. He has to plan a very special surprise for Sadie's birthday.

Matthew installs an outdoor fire pit and catches something from the ocean that's finally worth bragging about.
