August

The arrival of August sends the group into a frenzy of agricultural work as they prepare to leave, cutting the wheat and cooking the grain. Historian Stuart Peachey prepares the farewell dinner, including rustic goose pie, pureed white carrot and fermented cider - which the team use to toast their year of hard graft on the 17th-century farm.
