Claire McCollum visits a farm in Devon, where faith and farming go back five generations, and helps bring in the harvest. \n\nClaire joins the Pinhey family at one of the busiest times of the agricultural year and discovers how faith, farming and family life go hand in hand. The family share their firm belief that working the land is a partnership between them and God. They also explain how farming requires them to rely on their faith from day to day. Claire finds out how disaster almost brought five generations of farming here to an end, before divine inspiration helped turn things around. \n\nIn Rutland, we visit a Christian residential community for people with learning disabilities, where growing and harvesting their own produce helps them to flourish. \n\nAnd we have classic hymns and modern praise to give thanks for the harvest. \n\n1. We Plough the Fields and Scatter – Holy Trinity Church, Long Melford \n2. Great Are You Lord – Our Atlantic Roots at the Eden Project \n3. To God Be the Glory – Warwick Road United Reformed Church, Coventry \n4. For the Beauty of the Earth – BBC Young Choristers of the Year at the Fitzrovia Chapel, London \n5. Living Hope – Reach Church, Derby \n6. Come, Ye Thankful People, Come – Fisherwick Presbyterian Church, Belfast
