Shifting, Slicing, Lifting, Burning I have few rules: bring nothing into the glade, take nothing away and… shifting, slicing, lifting, burning, YES. There’s a rough attempt at composition (do composition and compost have the same root?) And pleasure too in […]

Sowing at other partner gardens As well as using the plot at Tuppenny Barn (previous blog) I am using other spaces to grow my plants. My base garden is The Garden @ Art Space, an area of tarmac next to […]
