RE: December Garden Update: To Grow or Not To Grow, SInce I'm Going... [Plus, A Couple of Drone Shots of Our Place!]

in HiveGarden3 years ago

I can't imagine leaving it.... and starting all over. But a homesteading couple in VT did just that a few years back, and now their new homestead is thriving. Steve Solomon of The Intelligent Gardener also did that in the last couple years and he is in his 70's! If I remember right, he is in Tasmania...

Oh I'll have to look into him. I know there's a lot of awesome perma/biodynamic farmers down there - looking forward to doing a tour of some of the farms. YEah, gardens grow, right? Patience is a virtue and all that. It's just trees that take their time - my beautiful lemon tree! My quince! My lime! My plums! I'm going to have to let some stuff go. It'll be nice not working so hard all the time if we go to a smaller garden. I can talk myself into anything, really, but it's going to be a real tug to leave this place.
