Loving Earth

I believe that I should take from earth sparingly, and that I should put back what I take out,
I'm celebrating, because I have managed to make three whole compost bins of compost since spring, and there is another pile waiting for time to decompose. I will spread this on the soil in the spring, it will add humus, nutrients, and help the soil to retain moisture., the worms will dig it in for me. The plants are gonna love it and thrive. Comfrey leaves are going in a bucket of water to liquidise, that will feed my new tomatoes and potatoes next year. No carbon emissions in the process, if I purchase fertiliser it leaves a carbon emissions trail, when I grow my own veg, again no transport emissions. The bonus? veg bursting with flavour freshness and vitamins, and no added toxic chemicals, at 67  the exercise is good for me age is no barrier to hard work
I have chosen heritage seeds, from which I can save seed, and some I have saved. this year.   F1's do not replicate true to type, they are expensive and recent studies have shown don't have the same potency as good heritage seeds. If you would like to see my organic  garden here is the link
