Turkeys and Organic Vegetables

At Newhouse Farm this week Dick and James are preparing one of their home reared Turkeys and their organic vegetables for a special lunch to be delivered on Bodmin Moor. This week’s eco-test guest is Phill Jupitus who is on a road trip with his mate Lauren. Together they are test driving the latest Airstream eco caravan and sing a lot along the way... James visits his mate Duncan who is launching his Thoughtful Bread Company in Bath with a tasting session at the local farmer’s market. Let’s see how beetroot bread goes down with the punters?! Thrift is a word that is coming back into fashion and for some people is a matter of habit. James talks to journalist Hunter Davies about the frugal nature of the Past. Lastly, it’s the final visit to Chris and Jay at their Victorian terrace in London. Have they moved in yet? And just how eco is their renovation?
