She has a treat for her ducks and hens as they finally get out of lockdown, and Farmer Tim has a shock in store when Kate arrives after a shopping trip with three tiny additions to the farm. Kate's also indulging some of her passions, from cooking outdoors to foraging and investigating a dark secret beneath the beautiful surface of the River Wye.
