Our permaculture allotment

Our allotment
Hello peeps! Today's blog post is about our allotment wich my mum Melissa, our dog Fudge, and I enjoy visiting...



As you can see we have a wood burner which we use to keep warm in the winter. Sometimes we even cook potatoes in there, wrapped in tinfoil.  

↜ Over there: we like to take cold drinks to the allotment (in summer) which we drink with our reusable rainbow metal straws! My fave drink of the mo is Karma Cola's 'Lemony Lemonade'. Why not check out their cool ethical website hear: Karma Cola 

Permaculture keyhole bed 
Our next allotmenteering adventure is to make a Permaculture keyhole bed. We plan to grow strawberries in the side and veg in the top!   
Why not check out this awesome video here: permaculture video?  

Mist at the allotment.
Well, this is the end of this blog post. Hopefully, we won't get any giant slugs eating our veg. Again. love Gaia cacti xxx

Will it snow again this year in Cornwall?

Today I have been pondering whether it will snow again here in Cornwall UK, like it did last March... So I thought I would share with you some photos of when 'The Beast From The East' came to Cornwall.... View to our garden by the sea. Fudge eating snow. I remember when it first started to snow I couldn't believe it, as it has only snowed three times before in the more than eight years that I have lived in Cornwall!  But last years was the biggest lot of snow by far!   No snow today but lots of wind. Back tomorrow with our results of our RSPB Big Garden Bird Wach. Over and out x

Watercolour paintings of the birds we saw in the RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch 2019

Hello peeps, today my mum Melissa and I have been doing lots to help keep the wild birds happy. First, we made some more lard cakes (see 25/1/19's post for the recipe!) and hung them out where the birds can reach. After that, we settled down by my desk and the bay window (which I Keep my many houseplants on) to do the RSPB Big Garden Bird Wach. We only saw two Blue Tits. But they came back twice! Here is a photo of one of  Blue Tits that we spotted.↑ I also did a couple of watercolor paintings whilst we bird watched.   Maybe the reason we didn't get many feathered visitors was that it has been VERY windy here in Cornwall, with wind speeds up to 70 miles per hour!    Me in my "Bird Wachi'n Hat" Well, that's it for today. Good luck if you are participating in The Big Garden Bird Wach. And if not, ahh well... See you tomorrow, Love Gaia Cacti xxx
