I want to make use of the space created by digging out around the house. I picture raised beds (square ones!) and a fruit area or even a mixture of the two. The boundary is interesting as it borders a forest of pine with some wild chestnut and oak springing up in between. It has to be as self sustaining as possible as there is only one of me but as it will be outside the future kitchen it will be the main zone 1 area.

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.

Is it possible to plant some fruit trees there for the future? If I were you I'd grow whatever the locals grow to suit the conditions, especially as you don't want to use artificial chemicals. You know me, I'd have a big fish pond. I don't think carp tastes very nice and I'm far too squeamish to catch them though.
