Disaster Strikes During Our Farmhouse Renovation! – From City To Smallholding x HelloFresh

From City To Smallholding has built a loyal following by sharing the honest, often unpredictable, reality of rural life, and episode 27 is no exception. This week’s video takes us inside a particularly challenging chapter in their farmhouse renovation, and it’s one that tested both patience and plaster.

The plan was simple enough: lay a new limecrete floor. But as anyone who’s tackled a major renovation will know, things rarely go according to plan. A broken cement mixer brought progress to a grinding halt before it even began. And just when they thought it couldn’t get worse, an unexpected hospital visit added a serious curveball. What follows is a raw, real, and at times emotional glimpse into the chaos of DIY on a grand scale.

Despite the setbacks, there’s a thread of community and resilience running through the episode. With the help of friends (and some determination fuelled by sheer necessity), the job eventually got done. That blend of humour, grit, and relatability is exactly why audiences keep coming back.

This week’s video also features a fantastic offer from HelloFresh. Viewers can head to this link or use code FCTS50 to get 50% off their first box, 20% off the next four, and free desserts for life. The offer is open to new customers as well as anyone who cancelled their subscription over a year ago, a great fit for followers of the channel who love home cooking as much as home improvement.

From City To Smallholding continues to prove that even when disaster strikes, there’s always a story worth telling, and a community ready to watch.
