If you ever watched The Good Life, a classic British sitcom about a couple trying to live a self-sufficient lifestyle in a London suburb, then you will understand the reference to it in this Daily Mail article entitled, The real Good Life: An entire village turns against supermarkets and grows its own food.
The villagers grow 45 types of vegetables (and raise chickens and pigs too) and every Saturday the produce is sold at the village hall The green scheme had a turnover of £27,000 last year! Good for them. It's a fantastic idea. I'm very impressed.
