Home Made Wine Brewing and the new home

Home made wine brewing, Green Grape, Blackberry, Feijoa and Apple Cider vinegar

We have recently moved house complete with the newly made wine sitting fermenting in its bottles complete with airlocks fitted to keep out insects.
The wine is still bubbling away nicely and we have invested in several more glass carboys so we can siphon the wine off to leave the dregs or finished yeast that has settled in the bottom.

Make Your Own Delicious Homemade Wine

To our intense disgust the wind whips across the valley and almost rips the plants out by the roots and we have found our new neighbours have a taste for anything - especially green but anything will do and my Bromeliads next to the fence have "chomp" sized pieces missing as they grazed along.

Wind power here would not be a problem !

New Neighbors
Three of the flock were here when we discovered their fondness for our plants - just as well the rest of the flock weren't in the same paddock before we became wise to their ways

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
