Hello from South East Bristol

Post: # 251073Post thejanine »

Hi there
Been hovering around the edges of this website for a while and decided to register. So hello from me. The selfsufficientish things about me are : I am a new allotment holder, my back garden contains 11 rescued ex battery hens, I own 3 ferrets but not for hunting (I don't eat meat). I have a second hand greenhouse which needs reglazing in parts which I grow salad in and I do a little foraging in the autumn (but hope to do more soon). I'm currently looking into making my own booze (I have Andy's book), I already make my own bread and cakes but not much else. Want to start making my own preserves, chutneys etc this year.

Hi and welcome. You'll fit right in here then. Plenty of thread on all your activities

Hello

Like most of us, start small and catch the 'ish' bug.

Well done for taking on those hens.

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!
