The story

The documentary follows Tree and Burrell – both in the present and through filmed recreations of their younger selves using actors – as they transition Knepp away from intensive farming and instead encourage natural processes and biodiversity. The couple decides to stop farming partially as a result of a visit from an expert on oak trees, Ted Green, who draws to their attention how intensive farming is harming their existing oaks. The rewilding includes allowing large herbivores like Exmoor ponies, Tamworth pigs, deer and English longhorn cattle to roam freely, based on the ideas of conservationist Frans Vera.
