    After the wettest July in memory, Tommy and his colleague Dickie are lamenting the impact the weather has had on their crops - and they're trying to find the positives.

    Episode 17: Smell The Coffee

    If the food and drinks menu aren't enough to keep Tommy on his toes, there's also the small matter of breakfast. For guests at The Black Swan and The Abbey Inn, a stay also includes breakfast - and that can mean copious amounts of coffee. Tommy has his own blend, created with help from specialists Lonton Coffee. But now, he wants to serve that blend in guests rooms, in the form of a coffee pod. But can Lonton Coffee provide pods which are sustainable AND which taste as good as the blend Tommy designed? Also in this episode - chef Dickie is experimenting with peaches which have grown on the farm for the first time in years. And Tommy sits down to chat with Julius Roberts - a chef-turned-farmer who has embraced the countryside and set up a new life in Dorset. They discuss seasonal produce, the challenge facing farmers, and their favourite breed of pig! If all that wasn't enough, we're also announcing the latest winner from Tommy's Well Seasoned club.
