Hi to all from the West Country

Post: # 207261Post muckypig »

Hi to all

We are a family of 4 from Cheltenham in the West Country. :wave: We are looking to grow our own veg to start with and then hoping to have some chickens for eggs...possibly meat at some stage.

I hate to say it but we'll be asking for advice on best veg to grow and when to grow it?!?!? :iconbiggrin:

PS My daughter loves pigs hence the name...we do wash...honest! :lol:

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
