Permaculture Forest Garden

This abundant permaculture forest garden in Hampshire, is 25 years old,  it is just 1/3rd of an acre.

The forest garden was created by Tim and Maddy Harland who founded Permaculture Magazine.

What are you growing today, I've put some lemon seeds in today, let's see if we can get those to sprout, as the date seeds don't seem to be doing much. Although fingers crossed, we might just have one cherry tree seedling looking lovely, although compared with the chilli plants, it's a slow grower. 

I have some fruit on my indoor chilli plants. The red cabbages are coming along nicely, and so are the carrots, although it was the celery that really gave me a buzz.  Onwards and upwards with growing food and herbs. I really fancy one of those little apple trees that Tim and Maddy have, for next year. What a great idea, trees and perennial plants that just keep on giving a natural resource that you can eat from your own garden.
