Making use of what´s available



I saved the top soil from what was dug out around the house. At the moment I have it stacked in one place so to make use of it I created a temporary trench and planted Kale for the hens and more lettuce. Let´s see how it does.

I've no idea what kale is, is it like cabbage? I hope you're not shifting that soil by yourself, that's what men are for. Maybe you can train the chickens to pull little carts and use tiny pick axes.

The Journey Begins

In actual fact the journey began some time ago. The Design course has reinforced decisions that had already been made and given me the tools to put together some sort of plan to make that first step a little less daunting. I returned from the two week course today and although extremely tired I have been so motivated not just by the course, but by the people I had the good fortune to meet, that I have created this blog. I owe a great deal of thanks to those people, for their inspiration, support and a great deal of laughter. I'm not sure what the outcomes will be, but I am sure it will be an interesting journey and welcome you to join me.
