Farming the Wild • Season 2

Farming the Wild celebrates hunting as a way of gathering sustainable wild food. The show delves into all aspects of the hunting tradition, across borders, in different cultures. The show educates and informs, and focuses on the food aspect of hunting. The emphasis is on harvesting wild meat, rather than hunting for sport or pure pleasure.
Most of the large species pursued and hunted are female or cull animals - the antler element is only looked at as a way of identifying age or quality. There is never a celebration when an animal is harvested. We believe in paying respect to the quarry and appreciating that an animal has died that we can eat - a basic hunter - gatherer trait that is in evidence in all primitive cultures.
Skills are key, and fieldcraft is showcased throughout the show, as well as the equipment and training to use it to the full. We meet experts in the field of hunting and conservation, and the challenges faced by invasive species. We focus on carcass preparation and cooking skills. Outdoor cooking is a key skill that we delve into, as well as following Mike into his Michelin starred restaurants. The secrets of how great chefs prepare game will be revealed. This show will take the viewer from the field all the way to the kitchen. The viewer will learn to cook world class game based dishes, and learn useful preparation skills.
Farming the Wild is THE show for responsible, environmentally aware wildlife management and usage. The ethos is acquiring wild protein, the fieldcraft, respect for quarry, and the love of outdoors.

Mike if your reading take this with the love its intended. I love your dishes and I always love more wild game, the focus you bring to hunting for food, excellent. It is apparent though watching your media, that you have no shame when it comes to sponsorship . It s such a shame as it does you and your effort a real disservice. In particular I would like to bring to your attention that your knife is not good, and anyone with a mild passing interest in knives (and in particular field knives designed for dressing game) knows that it is no way good for deer at all. The shame of this is it immediately discredits you and what you try to achieve, I really genuinely love what you do but that knife is sacrilegious, and tacky and just like a gas station knife. also like I mentioned the heavy sell on the sponsorship drive , common not classy mike at all. With love mike with love ok
