It's that time of year again....

When I get a huge plant delivery...and it's not all food plants this time!
I know it's garden vanity, but people care is a permaculture principle and old-fashioned David Austin roses make me happy x

I may just get some peonies too.

I have decided to turn the front yard into a cottage-garden/orchard this winter, it's such a boring suburban lawn- I hope the landlord doesn't mind.

The backyard is in full-winter swing, broad beans are getting leggy, and the brassicas are fighting off the cabbage moths. I have three baby chickens too, they make my day when they jump on my shoulders. I wonder what will happen when they are fully grown.
