Gourmet Farmer
Gourmet Farmer
Matthew Evans once trained as a chef before he crossed to the dark side of the industry and became a restaurant reviewer. After five years and 2,000 restaurant meals as the chief reviewer for the Sydney Morning Herald, he came to the slow realisation that chefs don’t have the best produce in the land, normal people who live close to the land do. So he moved to Tasmania, to a small patch of earth, where he’s raising pigs and sheep, milking a cow and waiting for his chickens to start laying.

Our Nature
Our Nature
We Belgians are modest by nature. But we don't have to be modest about Belgian nature. Not the leopard, but our peregrine falcon is the fastest animal in the world. The dwarf mouse weaves nests in the reeds as ingeniously as an African water bird. And if you think that our Kalmthoutse Heide is inferior in beauty to the African Savannah, then you should come back when the shrub heath transforms the dry plain into a sea of purple flowers. 'Our Nature' is an ambitious nature documentary about nature in our backyard. Beautiful stories about known and unknown animals that arouse wonder and increase love and respect for our nature. This is the story of the victors, the opportunists, the spendthrifts, the fighters, the smart ones, the bosses. But also that of the losers, the species that we may not encounter again in a few years... Survival of the fittest, in its most cruel and fascinating form, in a country where at first glance there seems to be no room for wild nature .
