Peter Rabbit, his cousin Benjamin and his triplet sisters Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail spend most of their days stealing vegetables from the garden of Mr. McGregor, a nearby farmer. After Mr. McGregor dies of a heart attack, his nephew Thomas arrives from London to take over the property in order to sell it for a profit. Thomas removes the animals from the house and begins to secretly wall up the garden, despite the objection of local woman Bea a friend to the rabbits who begins to fall in love with Thomas. Peter becomes jealous, and becomes embroiled in a war of traps with Thomas in this family comedy which mixes live-action and animation, adapted from the beloved children's books by author Beatrix Potter.
