Farming Practices, Food, and Food Shortages Caused by Inept Governments
I was watching in fascination a documentary about monastic farm practices in Tudor England. A historian and two archeologists introduced the viewers and the visitors to farming methods, tools, food, clothing, and customs from 500 years ago by actually tilling the soil, planting crops, harvesting them, building tools from that period, cooking, burning crockery, churning butter, raising sheep, pigs, and chicken, hunting, fishing, and living, at least on screen, like the monks had done during the fifteenth century.
