Gardening
Over 22 years I enjoyed building & caring for a native kwiwiana garden built from a blank quarter acre section.
I have now moved to a rural property and are now planting an English/ French garden complete with orchard and walled vegetable garden
with each property trowing up its own challenges with very different soil types I have also had to change and adapt to what will grow on a very dry and windy clay site.
you will find me in the garden for sunrise to well after sunset.
