Accidental farmer

February 15, 2020

I’ve had a lot of people tell me that it is their dream to live on a farm and grow their own vegetables. I may be ‘living the dream’ but it was never my dream. I sort of just fell into this life.

Garden preparations for 2020

December 20, 2019

We have prepared the garden according to Falk’s permaculture design, ready for 2020!

Changes made:

  • Our pond is pretty much complete, just waiting for it to naturally fill up
  • Outdoor kitchen and terrace
  • Fire pit and paths around the garden made

Next year we will also be building a conservatory and greenhouse. We have other exciting projects coming up as well.. all to be revealed soon.

More than just a farm

October 11, 2019

Check out my chicks

June 3, 2019

I haven’t posted much recently because I’ve been quite busy with our garden and different things around the house. The most exciting news, however, is that we got four brahma chicks last week. They are now two weeks old. We don’t know the sex of any of the chicks, so it’s possible we could end up with at least one rooster.

Spring changes

May 17, 2019

We’ve been back in Germany for over a month now and have been extremely busy at Datscha Fröhden. Falk, our friend and neighbour, is undertaking a permaculture design course and has come up with a new design for our whole outside space. Artur’s parents visited for two weeks and brought us a car load of plants, which took about a week to replant in the garden. Here are some of the main changes we’ve made in the last few weeks.

2019 Newbies

April 15, 2019

Last week the chicken man visited Fröhden and we got six new chickens! Who is this chicken man? He is basically a man that drives around Brandenburg and Sachsen in a red van full of chickens. He comes once a month and you call him up the day before to make your chicken order.
