Hello All
Room for another (not so small but working on it) one?
I live down in South Wales and since the pandemic have really stepped up my game.
I am lucky the house I am in is on top of a mountain with no light blocks so I get a fair bit of sun, my garden is also quite long even with a shed in the bottom so I have a good amount of growing space but I hope to improve it this year. Last year was my first year really growing and I managed to have radishes, courgettes, peas, runner beans, cucumbers, lettuce, rocket, carrots, strawberries, spring onions and a good harvest of potatoes. Im hoping this year to double my growing space, have moved my greenhouses location as well as making a bigger strawberry bed. Have a hoop house on the way to protect the strawberries (who knew dogs liked strawberries) as well as a fence to fence off my veg patch from dogs. Im also adding a patio apple tree and a blueberry bush for extra veg and I do forage for blackberries when the time comes to make into puddings, syrups and jams.
My husband and I also have purchased a van which we are turning into a day van/camper but keep supplies in there as a bug out vehicle too and have just added a roof tent for it as well so the kids have their own space rather than trying to fit 3 adults (me , husband and 19 year old son) daughter and 3 dogs in there.
I am in the process of decluttering and making space for more stocks. We have things like an incinerator / fire pit in the garden, stove and camping equipment, day van, trailer tent with cooker, generator, garden, greenhouse, water butt, etc.
Im glad I have found another outlet for preppers as well. I also belong to a group on FB for women only but always nice to have other outlets to talk to!
