Two years ago our wellie wearing family moved to the rolling wet hills of Mid Wales. We decided to grow our own fruit and veg, keep bees, poultry and build our own furniture with little or no experience.



This is our journey to the good life.

Progress report

Well the warm weather and abundant rain has brought up more than weeds (although the weeds seem to have the upper hand...) so here is a sneak peak at what going up in the veg patch at the mo!

 
Tomatoes and red peppers haven't looked back since we put them in their growbags!


Strawberries starting to blush - can't wait!

 
Will the garlic every stop growing!!!!

 
I planted asparagus on a whim and am dead pleased that both plants have sent up a long flowering tendril. Obviously no harvest this year but looking forward to years to come...

 
Early peas a-flowering

 
First earlies potatoes almost a-ready

 
After a lag-period the rhubard has also started producing leaf after leaf
 
 
Looking pretty tasty!!!!
