Hello from North Devon

[Tippychooks]

Hello all

I'm a single mum, 31 and live in a village in Devon. Before that I had five lovely and hard years trying the John Seymour thing in Southern Ireland with my ex partner and kept goats, sheep, all manner of featheries and grew food. Now I have a sizeable garden, three lovely hens and a killer rabbit ( it belongs to my 4 year old, nothing to do with me. The bunny is evil).

I've only had my house since March but I am loving building a garden from scratch and squeezing in what I can this season. I'm building a Shaker-style raised beds section at the back and planting veg in a pile-em-in cottage garden style riot in the front, under my baby fruit trees. It's slow going though as money and a lack of a car in a rural setting makes life difficult. I may resort to child labour.

Don't know what else to say really, if I waffle on too much I'll have nothing to add in the rest of the forum!

Looking forward to getting some advice and swapping seeds from like minds.
