Although for short periods of time I can be content with just the pleasures of life, I’ve found that the only sustainable ‘good life’ comes from having a purpose as well. That purpose is ideally one that’s within my control as work as a source of purpose has become fickle...

We’ve had a great first half of the year, grown way more than last year from the same land. The bumper harvests are over now as I turn my focus towards autumn, winter and spring abundance. While harvesting ‘just enough’ over summer #digforvictory #selfsufficient #backyardgarden #kitchengarden #allotment #allotmentlife
Broke another harvest record this week, brining our total for the year to £4,000 close to a 20% increase on last year from the same land with more increases to come, especially in autumn and spring.
