work so far..


The meadow cutting garden-


Ploughed and rotivated now the clearing commences!
The fence has been cut so we can walk through now. Seems more like my space now.
People keep asking `what will you grow`
Oh , that's where the fun bit starts....Lots of pondering and salivating over catalogues!
