The Earth moved
Finally, inspired by another at Kinda, a facilitator keen on astrology, we are moving the planets to the new land. With Jonathan's valuable and precise help, today we moved the earth. Using the Y's we collected from coppicing we created a strong triangle of them to hold up the earth. Here it is. At the… Continue reading The Earth moved
Sunday wood work with Jonathan
The sun shone. A pleasure it was to work with Jonathan all day long. We cut back the brambles from around the pond, some near the water could be pulled, the others cut and so coppiced to return again. I found some ferns I'd planted years ago still surviving. Our reward, to begin the weaving… Continue reading Sunday wood work with Jonathan

Del Thalia and the Paulownia
I could not remember who gave me this tree with huge leaves. But luckily Del and Thalia rocked up and asked me how was the tree they left in the nursary, the one with large leaves. So I took them to where we had planted it, Richard and I, earlier this year. Thalia was a… Continue reading Del Thalia and the Paulownia

Historically we coppiced… Continue reading Coppicing 2026
Filming in Kaliwood – Landed in Vosges
I tried to put off the film crew. The mud was at it's worst after the wettest year. I took a video of the river of mud. It was not Pennemunde but WW2. But they came, all the same. Jack the fixer, dog player, drone operator, among so many other things. (He even diagnosed the… Continue reading Filming in Kaliwood – Landed in Vosges
