Compost Activator


Here is comfrey we have easily grown in the past and used as a compost activater.  I've not only put it within the compost heap but soaked it for three weeks in buckets to use as a fertiliser.  It's roots grow a long way down (try and dig it out and you find this).  It gains it's nutrients apparently by this deep rooting of the plant. It is said to be a very basic need of growing an organic garden.  The plant is said to be a weed barrier since it is very invasive. Here we put it on the other side of logs we had framing our herb and vegetable garden. The sub-tropical area we were at - means it grew very hardy.

Enjoying our Garden



Amongst the green of the garden we established with both flowers and vegetables flourishing together. Each help the other in different ways to protect and build up health.

Wrought iron table and chair


Wrought iron garden table and chair. The signing of our marriage vows was attended to on the table - out in the greenery of shrubs and trees.

Only then will you see money cannot be Eaten


Only after the last tree has been cut down,
Only after the last river has been poisoned,
Only after the last fish has been caught,
Then will you know that money cannot be eaten....
