Fashion Designer Charlie May has escaped city life and gone back to her roots as a West Country farmer. Join her each week as she learns the basics of living sustainably, grows her own fruit, veg and wine, delves into her family’s history, and comes up with alarmingly ambitious plans to modernise the farm and ensure its survival. From fashion to farming, there's got to be some transferable skills, right?

Tis the Season
Goodbye Back to Earth! You’ve been my podcast for 3 glorious years, but now it’s time to pack up my recorder and move even deeper into the world of welly boots and flat caps (I’m still not wearing flat caps). Join me as I drink mulled wine and overdress the Christmas tree! I’ll be talking to mum about capturing cherished memories, the special time we’ve had together, following in her footsteps and, of course, death. So festive!

Goodbye Sleep
Everything is happening! Join me as I appreciate the “quiet” time before even more everything happens! I’ll be recruiting my brother to help me scare children, scrambling to save my vineyard from the ravages of weather, birds and bugs and trying not to cry while gazing in awe at my beautiful goblin baby.

Attacking the Attic-ing
I’m too hot and pregnant to be toiling in the fields! Join me as I retreat to the cool, dark shadows of the attic! I’ll be spending the day with mum, searching for ancient baby toys, uncovering paperwork, articles and foodstamps, learning about grandfather, war and wool and getting a glimpse at dad’s school life.

From Farming to Family
I’m beach(ball) body ready! Join me as I practise cold water swimming with David (no wetsuits!), admit defeat in the vegetable garden and prepare my body and mind for the birth of my daughter. From fashion to farming to family. There’s got to be some transferable skills, right?

Customer Reviews
Well done :)
Everything Definitely Human do is brilliant, and this is no different, despite its different subject matter. Good wholesome listening. Charlie’s mum is particularly awesome :)
Just so peaceful
I’m a Definitely Human fan anyway and I always love checking out any new podcasts you lot make, but Back to Earth especially is right up my alley. It’s reminiscent of Clarkson’s Farm but more genuine, and I’m basically aching with jealousy that I’m not in Devon right now on my own farm…
Especially fond of the chicken updates, and Charlie’s mum is a star!
Exactly what we need right now!
I just love how informative, real and natural each episode is, it really makes you feel you were there, back to earth with them. It’s peaceful and absolutely delightful to listen to. It’s like you got hooked on a book and can’t wait to find out what it brings in the next chapter. Highly recommend!
