Max Cotton
Episode 23, May 29, 03:44 PM
This week Bunny chats to Max Cotton. Max was a political reporter in Westminster for the BBC from 1995. He left politics in 2012.
Max decided he would live for twelve months from his small holding near Glastonbury of 5 acres only allowing himself to buy salt. As Max put it ‘I wanted a plain pastoral existence, that a chap in Saxon England would recognise, for its stoic simplicity of purpose.’
Bunny chats to Max about the politics involved in farming, William Cobbett who in the 18th Century reckon a quarter of an acre could feed a family, and how he grew 2500 calories a day to feed himself for 365 days.
