For months now I have been like a squirrel, foraging for
seeds and stashing them away, gathering as many different varieties as I can,
even weird and strange ones. My aim is to have a small but productive garden
but also to be able to save seed from the produce I grow, to re-grow and be
able to pass seed and plants onto others as well. I am recycling and making use
of the things I have around me.... you really start thinking outside the square
when your resources are limited but you definitely appreciate things more.
I guess I had become quite jaded with the world, the way
people treated each other, the waste and greed, the lack of skills and
knowledge of being able to grow and preserve food and understand where it comes
from. We have become such a throwaway society and it’s very sad. So I have decided
to do something about it, well, my little contribution to making the world around
me a bit nicer place to live in. This blog is for me to document my journey,
success and failures and general random postings about my thoughts, garden and
life. My name is Missy and this is my story...
