My Dream Farm (2010)

From The New York Times: Fleeing city life and embracing a pastoral existence: It's not just for Instagrammable fantasies anymore. Well, actually, it still is, and this British series from 2010 serves as a good reminder that small-scale farming is a tremendous undertaking. Get ready to learn about pig mange, for example, and the need to follow local building ordinances lest your would-be alpaca farm violate the law. Still, this show is mostly Monty Don giving gentle guidance and nonjudgmental suggestions. And advice like "get to know your neighbors" and "educate yourself about relevant issues" is as valuable in the concrete jungle as it is on a fledgling flower farm.
