Returning: Movin’ to the Country

Season 2 of Movin’ to the Country begins this Frday night on ABC, as Gardening Australia takes a break.

Hosts Craig Quartermaine, Halina Baczkowski and Kristy O’Brien head off to a different region every week to tell the stories of folk looking to make a good living from their little patch of paradise.  

Episode 1 – Victoria
Craig Quartermaine kicks things off in Orbost in a remarkable brewery run by a young couple who make revolutionary beer by linking up with local farmers, foragers and divers to source unique ingredients, under the wise guidance of Indigenous writer and teacher Bruce Pascoe. Kristy O’Brien heads out onto the Great Ocean Road to visit a third-generation dairy farmer changing the game by reviving the multiple benefits of the era of glass bottles. Near Daylesford, Halina Baczkowski meets Buck and the community being created around the idea of sustainable, low-fi, ethical pig farming.
