So with a busy summer season blog entries have escaped us.....so time for a quick catch up.
A summer with both our cottages full and visitors enjoying the space of both Mill Barn and Stable Cottage, and plenty of homemade cake, during a summer of mixed weather.
In the chicken world, plenty of eggs and a patient that resulted in a trip to the vets - yes we took a chicken to the vet - as she pushed out far too big an egg and ended up in chicken hospital....but the damage has been repaired and she's back laying eggs! Many broody hens and much more news soon...
Our cattle - all 4 girls are in calf so we're looking forward to new arrivals in Oct/Nov this year and will keep up with updates.
The vegetable patch - yet another bad year after being full of promise, blight on potatoes, tomatoes destroyed, courgettes so full of water turned to mush and little growing with so much rain and not much chance of planting more out....
More news coming soon from our new look blog so watch this space....

Our garden started out well also, then some things were good, others very poor - courgettes needed more light perhaps but were not much use! Loads of broad beans and beetroot still to enjoy i hope!
Hi, I keep checking back and there are no new posts! Hope you will start posting again, as I, for one, enjoy reading them! Happy New Year. Vanessa
