Where to Watch Season 4
5 Episodes
- Appalachian Mountains
E3Episode 3Appalachian MountainsBen Fogle admires Justin, a natural at self-reliance in the Appalachians, who refused at 18 to enter the rat race and moved into a cabin on his grandfather's Tennessee woodland to avoid 'being lived' five years ago. Justin, who earns the necessary cash as blacksmith, has little patience with Ben's regular clumsiness at handiwork wielding say a hammer. He proves himself an efficient hunter, tanner, food preserver etcetera, content with a pioneer life style, but may have to compromise for his fairly like-mined, yet semi-urbanized girl friend from North Carolina. - Scotland
E5Episode 5ScotlandBen returns to the Scottish Highlands, where he spend his honeymoon, but not as romantic tourist. A Sussex family uprooted their home-schooled pre-teen kids to follow mother's dream and attempt self-reliant crofting (small farm tenancy) on Rùm, Britain's desolate, most rainy Inner Hebrides Island. They compromise on modern comforts, and supplement their agricultural and fishing produce with a guest house and hats for export.
