Moving away from the city has been a bit of an adjustment and it took us a while to get our heads around it all.
Since we moved here I have had time for spinning, dyeing yarn, knitting up unique items - some may say very unique :))  and been able to watch sunsets, chooks, cows and chickens scratching around have a large organic garden that was super productive until we discovered a possum in it !!   We have rediscovered how many of the old skills we had somehow had lodged in the recess of our memories :)0  Like how to bait a rat trap !

Permaculture Garden Visit

We went recently for a visit to a local eco village and saw some permaculture gardens and came back inspired to switch ours around (again) They had quite a few compost heaps, and lots of interesting ideas, like climbing frames for plants and  companion planting 

Curious Neighbour

Seems neighbours are still peering over the fence even in the country ! But its pretty neat to have four legged neighbours and friendly as well.  We had forgotten how curious cows are !  One of our ex-farmer told us to put a radio outside and the whole herd will arrive to see what is happening. get your own four legged curious neighbours and live the good life  in the countryside
