When I look at the trees that live here on my land, that have been here for hundreds of years before I was born, I realise one never really owns a tree. I am just their custodian for now. They are what remains of our once great temperate rainforest

If you want to feel more hopeful about your future may I humbly suggest you plant a tree, because nothing we can build or design can clean our air as efficiently economically or beautifully as a tree

Today’s task is to harvest hazel poles and build a support for the climbing French beans. Then get those beans in. If there’s any time left plant hundreds of leek seedlings. It’s a busy time of year in the veg garden

Someone is resting on the garden wall, gathering a little heat from the giant lump of coal I put there for exactly this purpose. Just look at his delicate toes and the beautiful patterns of his lizard skin. Perfect little creature minding his own business and making my ten step to work commute a joy
It’s been a busy day in the veg garden gathering hazel rods and whips to build a bean frame and then finding alternative ways to protect the seedlings from hungry slugs and snails
