This new vegetable garden was built with recycled wood & waste from the build of our home - and a tonne of compost from the local farmer ; it took less than 21 days to start producing our first crops ; we haven’t had to buy any fruit or veg for over a month .

Every part of our orchard is becoming productive ; Our little cherry tree has grown so tall ! You can see the start of the orchard with the grove of olives behind ... There’s pumpkin patches , asparagus beds , kale , rhubarb and carrots growing through the trees .
