New from Denmark

We love hearing from you, so here is your chance. Introduce yourself and tell us what makes you selfsufficient 'ish'. Go on don't be shy, we welcome one and all. You can also tell us how you heard about us if you like.

New from Denmark

Post: # 246197Post marimba »

Well.........I Have been self-sufficient-ish for many years. But have only recently realized that I am. I live in Denmark. Have an allotment near Copenhagen. Bake bread, make jam, Don’t know a mushroom from a toadstool. And was inspired long ago by John Seymour - which shows my age!

Nice to meet other -ishers!

welcome. I am more frugal than self sufficient. So I don't grow anything but do forage quite a bit and make lots of meals from scratch. I love to make for my friend so in fact yesterday made a walnut and banana cake but only 1/3rd stays in the house the other 2/3 rds are given to good friends. Still it makes me feel good.Nice to meet you, look forward to more posts.

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!
