Autumn

​

Greetings.

This is the home for all things horticultural, organic, sustainable on a stunningly beautiful - if wild  - site in Powys!

​

I nearly missed Summer this year - we had to wait so very long for the weather to finally warm up - and we're now already in the autumnal mists and apple harvest.

The garden borders have however been beautiful, even if the vegetables were somewhat disappointing...

Too many pests! Rodents of all shapes and sizes have wreaked havoc, moles, squirrels, pigeons, blackbirds - it's been a battlefield up here! 

Meanwhile the rescue animal companions are flourishing with 2 extra hens, Simeon the collie thriving, Shadow the pony learning about carriage driving - we're teaching each other! - and we've had a first solo drive, woohoo.

​

The willow courses have been numerous with much cake and biscuit consumed as well as a positive sea of willow items produced. As always, it is a pleasure to meet so many like minds!

The September courses have started again, I always take a break in August to catch up on the wilderness, so get in touch amd join the fun!

​

I always have random plants for sale - they are no longer my main focus, but it's hard to stop growing... So if you're visiting, do have a look and see what is on offer. 

​

Looking forward to more meetings with new people -  and old friends - and sharing the wonders of the natural world!
