Team of city slickers gets down and dirty  in pursuit of the  good life

RTÉ One will tomorrow night screen the first of a six-part series at 8.30pm, which focuses on city dwellers in Cork getting down and dirty in two allotments and watching celebrity chef Richard Corrigan cook what they produce.

Corrigan has enlisted 23 volunteers to become self-sufficient and learn how to grow their own produce and rear their own animals. He believes the experiment will spark a revolution in how people produce food, especially during these recessionary times.
