I am so much enjoying reading your posts and you have achieved so much! Well done! Had never heard of hugelkultur but have been inspired to build my own small experimental version,it’s a bit like a raised bed on steroids isn’t it? Still cold here in N.Cumbria so waiting a bit before planting. Now thinking about a couple of hens……
Best wishes,Alexandra.
Hi Alexandra, thanks for stopping by! How did you come by our blog? We’d be really interested to know how you get on with your Hugelkultur in Cumbria. Glad you enjoy our posts, and good luck with the hens, chickens are great!
Hi Guys, read your stuff all the time, think you are really doing great, love the piggies… I am not sure if you receive my posts, as I have not heard back from you… keep on updating with all your activities !!!!
Hi Anonymous, thanks for dropping by, glad you enjoy our ramblings! We’re not sure who you are, so can’t say if we get your posts or not!
Hi Joe, bought a few things in your gallery. Was chatting to Julie one day-must have been near to the end of your time there-and she mentioned that you were planning to do a blog of your new life in Bulgaria. Once I discovered it,have read all your posts as they pop up in my mail box.Really miss your gallery. Having to travel to Keswick now and Northern Lights Gallery!
Well I think it’s lovely that you are interested in our new lives, and thanks for your kind words about Crown Gallery.
We love the fact that you have permaculture layer as a section in the details. 🙂
We’re trying to fully embrace permaculture ideas, and incorporate them into our garden!
