Tales from the Green Valley - September

Twelve-part series in which five experts, archaeologists and historians take on the challenge of running a farm for a year as it would have been in the reign of King James I. Working without modern conveniences they try and turn theory into practice, rediscovering how things were done in the year 1620, with each episode following the tasks of a calendar month. To begin, the team use oxen to plough, sow seeds by hand and prepare a Jacobean feast.
