Marcus Wareing explores new possibilities on his Sussex smallholding. Having cooked with salt marsh lamb for years, Marcus decides to venture out to Romney Marsh to meet shepherd Chris and his flock. Here, he learns what gives this lamb its delicate flavour.
Back at the farm, Marcus gets busy picking some raspberries and making a raspberry and rose jam before his guest Laura arrives. Laura鈥檚 speciality is growing unusual fruits and vegetables, and she shows Marcus some of her most unusual produce, including a Kent-grown watermelon.
Feeling inspired, Marcus heads off to visit a school he has heard about nearby that has set up its very own farm. Marcus lends some of the children a hand looking after their animals and feels he might just have met the next generation of British farmers. Back at home, Marcus cooks up some delicious lamb ribs for Stuart and Chris as a thank you for his trip to Romney Marsh
