Welcome


Welcome to my new blog.

It is my intention to document here the process of creating a large vegetable garden, a forest garden and a medicinal herb garden here at Brickhurst Farm near Tunbridge Wells in Kent in the UK

The farm is an existing Permaculture farm and many of the areas of orchard here are now mature.

The vegetable garden will be run on a Jeavons type system and will be run organically although we do not have organic certification.

The people at the farm live in low impact dwellings called benders and burn wood for fuel that we coppice here.

The only service we have here from the outside world is the telephone (And my dongle)

I intend to use this blog to document the entire process of becoming self sufficient to anable others to follow suit if they desire to do so.

Work on the gardens will start as soon as the snow that has buried the farm has melted.
