One of my favourite ‘green’ additions to a garden… Lady’s Mantle.

The ‘vegie’ garden provides wonderful fresh food for the table.

Behind the house is a large area of woodland… great for walks. I’ll just give you a taste of that experience… I couldn’t stop all the time for photos… after all, it was a walk!

One of our little guides waited patiently for me to join in the next part of our walk. So,  I’ll leave you now and, when we come back, we’ll explore the garden behind the house.
