Welcome to our blog. It will follow the development of our garden from quagmire, after completion of our self-build, to a garden that reflects our eco-friendly principles. We are wanting to create a garden that meets our needs as a family but is also a wildlife friendly zone. Well that's what we are hoping, time will tell if we are successful.

Yolky update


A little while ago, one of the hens laid a tiny egg.










We cracked it in the interest of science but there was not a proper yolk. It was interesting but it hasn't happened again. The hens are still laying about 2 eggs a day though, despite the shorter daylight hours and lower temperatures.













We also had a busy time collecting apples. We made them into apple juice with the help of my friend, Nicky










 It was great fun to see the apple juice emerge from the press but we were exhausted.










By the end of the evening we had the most fantastic apple juice ever but we were so exhausted we could have done with a glass of the original contents of  the bottle!
