Synopsis

Traditional ploughland is disappearing. The corncrake is all but extinct in England, and the hare is running for its life. This is the story of a man who took on a field and husbanded it in a natural, traditional way, restoring its fertility and wildlife, bringing back the old farmland flowers and animals.
