The Farmers' Country Showdown

Series 7

Lavenham Farmers' Market

Duration: 43 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One North East & Cumbria HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Two Wales HD

New farmer Greg has spent the past two years transforming a derelict council plot into a fruit and veg haven. After missing the countryside while working as a yacht crew member, and then overcoming heart surgery, Greg’s mission now is to provide fresh quality food to his community. As a new business making little profit, selling at award-winning Lavenham Farmers’ Market is a vital source of income, so creating an eye-catching stall to show off his colourful harvest is key.

Nearby, hard-working tenant farmers Sophie and Tim have brought a full range of dairy and meat, from milkshakes to burgers, to bag as many sales as they can on a hot summer’s day. With young son Henry on the till, Sophie is freed up to go on the charm offensive with potential customers. Show less
