In early 2022 we started filming for a new Channel 4 series called "Help We Bought a Village!" The programme follows our journey restoring the farm and nearby hamlet, Borgo Monticole. As well as the fun and foibles of running a farm, you'll learn more about the history of the valley, and meet our neighbours and friends.

​

Season 1 was released in Summer 2022. It reached over a million viewers in the Spring 2023, was also broadcast on PBS in the USA and was nominated for a BAFTA. Season 2 was released in October 2023. Season 3 coming soon!

The farm was also the subject of a trending article on Apple News and most read article of the week in The Times money section, as well as articles in The Independent, The Mail Online (1) & (2), Business Insider, and the Evening Standard and Italian newspapers Dagospia and il Resto di Carlino.
