Bromyard Hops

Anita Rani is in Herefordshire to discover the secrets behind the great hop revival, from pest-eating predators to new flavours to help pack a punch in our pints. She also meets one of the last pickers who harvested hops by hand. Adam Henson chats with another inspiring contender to be Countryfile’s Young Countryside Champion, and he meets the final two teams of shepherds and their dogs going for glory in this year’s One Man and His Dog competition. As the countdown continues to the Children in Need Countryfile Ramble, we discover what a difference we can all make to young lives.
