Hello from Oriole

Post: # 153237Post oriole »

I found this site when looking up sites that include eating weeds and snails.
I was on the One Show (BBC1) recently, with John Sergeant, about eating garden snails.
I wanted to add something on that thread here.
I am a permaculturish forest gardener.
I have been interested in (and attempting to practice) this whole self sufficientish area since about 1970.
