The poor neglected garden

Dear readers. I write to apologise for my absence. Normal service will resume within a couple of weeks but I’ve been otherwise distracted for the last couple of week. Well, the last four anyway. Four weeks ago today our first child, a little boy, was born and it turns out that looking after a baby is considerably harder than I thought it’d be. So my poor garden is going to rack and ruin through neglect (though Mr Garlic is heroically watering it every night) but I’ll be back soon! In the meantime, I leave you with this, a picture of our overgrown jungle!

We farm a three acre smallholding in Hampshire, England, having fled London in pursuit of the good life for our little family. We mess about with an assorted menagerie and try to be as self-sufficient as possible in meat and fruit and vegetables whilst enjoying our plot and an outdoors lifestyle with our son. I am the luckiest person that I know.
