Our blog is dedicated to seasonal living: cooking with local produce (sometimes our own), sewing for the home and searching out vintage bargains.

We believe that most of the pleasure is in the journey - in the making and creating, even if in a simple way.

Simple Small Beginnings

It's probably a little early but I sowed some salad leaf seeds today. I reckon if I keep them away from any frost, we should soon be eating our own small scale produce - and you can't get much smaller scale than this! I would urge anyone to have a go. All you need is a little compost (suitable for vegetables), a tray and a packet of seed. See, I said it was simple.
