Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall is celebrating the summer season with a four-part River Cottage series. Following up on his Landshare campaign Hugh will cover some of the groundbreaking stories to develop as amateur veg growers search for new land. To further celebrate the warmer weather Hugh has filled his gardens with strawberry patches that he hopes to grow just in time for his massive strawberry fete for five hundred people.
Back in the River Cottage kitchen, Hugh will be whipping up seasonal delights and seeking out the finest edible goodies from the garden, the hedgerow, the river and the stream. From pea shooters, parsley pesto and potted mackeral, to goats cheesecake with gooseberries and roast potato gnocchi, Hugh’s garden delicacies are all washed down with lashings of Gorse Flower Wine and Carrot and Spruce Beer.

We love watchng this show an put good new recipees to good use!! Yay hugh!
My partner and I have been watching Hugh forrage and cooking from his trusty old land rover with dangling pot and pans etc. when he opened up the back door. That series was on TV a few years ago. Can't remember the name of that series. We love watching his new series River Cottage.
At last....a show about REAL food !! I'm off now to look for the roasted root vegetables recipe, (potato,turnip and parsnip) and the roast beetroot, and carrots. Thanks Hugh xo
Your show is so inspiring and I just loved the episode about the fish that I was actually inspired to go out with my dad the whole day and fish. We didn't catch much except a decent whiting after the bait was in the water for about 5 secs and 2 other mystery fish which I took home and was shown by my dad how to fillet, I now plan to make something really yummy with the fillets.thank you for the inspiration Hugh : )
I love the wholesome food he grows and cooks. I am addicted to his shows. I wish to one day also grow and cook my own food just like him. It is so relaxing to watch his show after a hard days work at the office.

That would be fantastic - Hugh & Jamie together. They are both on the same wave lengths.
WOW, this guy is great, nice dishes with traditional touch and giving a true value to the term organic and local...
Hugh is a great role model, and opening or rather re-opening peoples eyes to the love of the land is wonderful. I wish great things for River Cottage and its people. I look forward to seeing more of this show and influence and inspire the people to go back to basics. Great show for Body and Soul. This show is truly a Lifestyle show. I just love it.
recipe for bread how much flour?
I love this show, from the diversity of the homegrown produce to the fun of the market sales and getting people to experience new tastes, good for you Hugh!!
I totally agree, the show is so entertaining and there's something so comforting about how he has set up his farm and garden to produce his own food etc. I just love it! Wish I could be so clever :)
