My forays into being ishly self-sufficient have so far been minimal - making damson gin, jam, ginger beer from proper ginger beer plant, making bread and picking wild stuff. Can't think of any more
I love cooking so am looking to steal recipes. I am also looking for ideas to stock an overlooked garden (we are about to be surrounded by new builds that weren't there before, including a nice big block of apartments) and give us a bit of privacy and I'd like tips on how to compost properly. Plants that do well in shady spots
. Would love my own damson trees too. Did I mention garden is size of hankie?Anyway - hello - I'll be off to see if any of the answers to the above are already in the forum before I ask. What a good newbie I am.

(thanks)
