goodbye garden

30 MARCH, 2014

It is with a heart full of sadness that I have decided to move after three years of cultivating the sandy soil of my front garden and turning it into a powerhouse of nutrients for my plants.

I know the fruit trees are now going to flourish and the hedge is beautiful. The garden is so pumped full of goodness but I know it's not without its flaws.

Much of it was a continuation in the experimentation of permaculture and it was in need of refining. I am now happy to be able to turn all of what it has taught me over into my new gardening endeavours.

Let the journey continue! Thank you, garden, for being an amazing source of joy every day and for being my teacher X
