Bread and barter

Post: # 177470Post homegrown »

Yippee

I have just scored a new garden project, creating a vegetable garden prchard, shade house and green house garden for a solomother and farmer, the payment is via barter a lamb and a pig fully butchered.

Its the first job where i have been given complete creative control over the layout, whats more she has gathered all the necessary materials already and its all recycled materials.

really looking forward to the challenge, I'm even installing rainwater systems to provide for the garden.

Our remote ancestors said to their mother Earth, "We are yours."
Modern humanity has said to Nature, "You are mine."
The Green Man has returned as the living face of the whole earth so that through his mouth we may say to the universe, "We are one."
