Hi, and welcome to our blog!
We moved here just over three years ago, and I've finally got round to starting a blog to document our lives, the progress we have made and what we are hoping to achieve.
Maybe one day I'll even be able to write about making some money from this place......
Back when we moved in we were faced with this:
Did a LOT of this:
And even more of this:
There has been a huge amount of work over the last 3 years but there's also been a lot of these:
And some wonderful ones of these...
We're now part way through extending the house, have pigs, sheep, chickens (quite a lot of chickens actually, don't tell Si!) and a polytunnel and veg garden producing lots of our food.
We're never going to make a fortune, or even a living from this place, but if it allows us to eat good quality food with a known provenance and gives us enough to sell that it covers our costs then we will be happy.
I know both Si and I are jealous of our daughter growing up here, with all the freedom and fun that it will entail.
