prospects are good - update!

Never did give an update on our veggie delights - most of the veg is beginning to come in and thanks to some shrewd swapsies with a fisher man, along with the hens still producing, we've been pretty much eating for free the past while. It's been a dream to be self sufficient and a meal you've produced yourself tastes soooo good!

Here's a quick pic of an earlier crop - we've got around 20/30 tomatoes a day now so we've to come up with some creative ways of preserving and storing. Himself made some ketchup last night - mmmmmm :-)

Prospects are Good

yeah - I got a new keyboard! It's been busy on the homestead with the pollytunnel going up and lots and lots of planting being done. We've gotten most of the veg down and are now busy fighting the rooks and magpies!
Here's a pic of the tunnel before the plastic went on - with Rosie of course!
