River Cottage - Season 2 Episode 6
Hugh tries brewing his own beer, using a hop plant he's found growing atop a tree. Later, he employs Nigel, an expert in hedge laying, to tame the trees behind the cottage. In exchange for a few bales of hay, Hugh acts as the quarry in a bloodhound hunt. Finding that too exhausting, Hugh decides to hold a "bring-a-bale" party to shore up his supply of hay for the winter. He cooks a Moroccan tajine with lamb, and Ray the butcher prepares steaks from Hugh's steer, which they eat with fresh horseradish sauce. The series closes with Hugh's party, as he's joined everyone who has helped him over the past year.
