Hi!
Not logged in for a while as we have been busy tring to get our new house sorted, we bought 'dreamhome' in July, nearer to the land we rent but it also surrounded by a 10 acre field that we hope we will be able to peruade the owner of that to sell to us.
Still got the dogs, horses, ducks, chickens, guinea fowl, we fattened 2 pigs, they are now in the freezer and the ewes are due to lamb 1st april, there are still 2 lambs from last year in with them due for the freezer soon.
Not got the veggie garden going yet as where we put the pigs to clear, they uncovered the remains of a building, am wondering if it could have been a stable as I found tiny horseshoes!! But, maybe this year my veggies will be in tubs and small borders til an area is cleared.
One of the best bits, we actually have a River Cottage! We have a stream running through our garden!
Hope you are all well!
Looking forward to going to the first Smallholder 'Gathering' in September in Forfar is it??
