Food forest- phase 2

On the right is what it looked like before the chickens went in. See the left for how they cleared it. They ate and scratched all except the kikuyu roots. Time to move them to the next piece on the right. And plant the left side! Hooray for planting season!

First summer dinner

For all those volunteers coming this summer, here is a taste of what you may eat. My favourite kind of food.

Mixed salad of lettuce, tomatoes, olives and sunflower seeds.
Slaw of cabbage, sour apple and radish dressed with lime and ginger.
Chickpea and brocolli salad with creamy garlic dressing.
Fresh homemade bread.

And since it's only 12 degrees outside  And probably too early for this cold food- sweet potato chips (fries)!

Hooray for August because spring is coming!

Plastering and more

Sorry for the lack of progress reports but here are a few pictures to show where we are now. The internal walls are drywall on timber frames...
