Anyone here watch these historical farming documentary series? There's some pretty good info and methods used in some of this stuff. It is also pretty interesting. Basically, each series follows people working a farm for 1 full year, trying to reenact a time period. In some of the shows they mention books and pamphlets you can sometimes access online if you take the time to search for them. At the least, these are some very comfy series to watch. Personally, they make me want to get up and do stuff. Here's a list, of the series in chronological order, but not in order of show release dates,
1 - Tudor Monastery Farm (1457–1509)
