All is well in the garden!

After a couple of weeks of beautiful sunny spring days I’m very pleased to see some rain. This is what spring weather should be….sunshine and showers.

I’m happy to be rained off for a day or two. We have been concentrating on the veggie plot, rearranging large areas of the garden and enlarging our chicken coop. I’m shattered so I’m going to spend a couple of days inside decorating😆

Coming soon😁
A workshop with Steph from is in the planning.
Steph will be showing us how to make these beautiful willow bird feeders (Actually, I use mine as a garlic basket🤷🏻‍♀️😆).

It’s always a joy to spend a relaxing afternoon with Steph, creating something beautiful whilst enjoying a cuppa and a slice of something yummy😋.

Thank you to all the lovely members of staff at for hosting our fermenting workshop yesterday.

Such a wonderful space with a beautifully peaceful atmosphere x

Thank you also to all the lovey ladies who came along to make kimchi, Kvass and fermented cherry tomatoes. The workshop proved to be very popular and not everyone was able to secure a space but Tina has very kindly booked us for a repeat workshop on Monday 27th April… we would love to see you there x

Contrary to popular belief there is a whole lot more to sprouting than just the alfalfa you may find in your local health shop.

We do of course sprout alfalfa but we sprout so many other things too. Mung beans, lentils, green peas, corn, sunflowers, pumpkin, chickpeas etc..

We also like to sprout a variety of nuts. Nuts aren’t usually left to sprout to the point of growing shoots but are soaked for several hours and then left to sprout for a day or two. Nuts, like almonds don’t sprout shoots but they will swell up and undergo the same metabolic transformation that other sprouts do.

Some of these soaked nuts are used to make a sprouted nut milk, a protein packed nutrient efficient probiotic drink. The nuts are simply added to filtered water, wizzed in the blender and strained to separate the pulp. The pulp doesn’t go to waste, it is added to all sorts of recipes, cakes, porridge and yoghurt toppings, someone even suggested making it into a nut butter…. great idea Tania😉

Thank you to everyone who came along to our first “Pantry Chat” of the year.

We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did and maybe picked up some useful tips from us and each other about sprouting seeds.

We’re looking forward to showing off the micro greens and tasting the rejuvelac, both of which should be ready in time for next weeks chat.

Hope to see you then x

My first attempt at paper batik art😄

Last weekend my daughters and I attended a local class with Tania Sellwood The Natural Wellbeing Centre of Romsey. Such a wonderfully relaxing way to spend a Sunday afternoon. We can’t wait to go back, maybe for something new or even a repeat of last weekend.

Tania is running various art and well-being courses from her studio in Romsey. Keep an eye on her page for up and coming events.

Saturday Pantry Chat is back!

This Saturday, join us in the kitchen for a cuppa. We will be chatting about sprouting seeds & planting kitchen top micro greens.
Seeds are the most fascinating things on earth, each contains all the genetic information needed to make a plant, and enough stored energy to send it on its way in life.
Turn your kitchen into a mini organic garden. With the right choice of seeds you get food with no noxious chemicals and no middlemen. Pound for pound, sprouted seeds are more nutritious than any other food, cheaper & fresher.
If you have never tried sprouted seeds before, this is your chance to see how quick and easy the process can be, it requires no special skills or equipment.

Drop in anytime between 10 & 12 to see what we are doing in our kitchen.
