Last night my little family escaped the Weed Patch to enjoy a magical evening on a special farm on our island.
We were treated to the freshest, most delicious garden dinner. Complete with surplus zuccs for the boys to fashion into a wide assortment of vessels to navigate through space and time…
Our bellies and hearts were filled with the positive energy that comes from spending time in someone’s else’s labour of love.
We returned home inspired to also nurture our Weed Patch in a manner that is fun and functional. And not forget to stop and smell the sweet peas with friends and family by our side.

You guys are ahead of me! I’m alley cropping in between hugels in Massachusetts. What kind of trees have you got in the alleys? How far apart did you do the mounds? I was thinking 20 ft , how are the mounds working? Have to irrigate much?
Don’t forget to enjoy your good work. I’d like to come and smell the sweet peas with you!
