Trying my hand at flower arranging this week 🌞💐

Saturday in four 📸

🌱 Our first harvest from the veg garden! Spinach! I had to resow it twice because of the slugs and snails, but luckily I have that problem under control now 🐌

🦆 No duck eggs for us at the moment! All 3 female ducks have made a nest and are sitting on eggs. Jerry is being protective and guarding them from above. Interestingly, they kicked out all their straw first and then made their own nests out of feathers.

🐐 Margot has been given some much needed baby free time. The kids are drinking her dry, and she doesn't get a minute to herself! Motherhood is hard work!

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 We went to our first Highland games!!! There was so much going on, I didn't know where to look first! It was absolutely amazing and we can't wait to go to another 💙

Life has been busy lately, and I have had zero time for social media, so I thought I would share a little update and snippet into life on Strutt farm 🐐🐥🦆🐑

The turkeys are growing really well and have been moved out of the kitchen and into the barn so that they can stay under heat, but have more space.

Ducktopia is in progress! We were left a corner bath that didn't fit into the upstairs bathroom properly, but will make a fabulous little pond for the ducks. They are going to have their own area, where they can come and go as they please. Poor Harry just has a lot of digging to do first 💪

I have been making soap and have some brand new soaps ready to buy, as well as a restock of the very popular Coastal Glow ☀️
🧼Lavender, Rosemary, and Chamomile
🧼 Coffee scrub

How many chickens are too many chickens? We haven't found out yet 😆 I accidentally ordered 10 meat bird chicks... so when Harry has finished digging, he will be straight on with a chicken tractor. It will be great to produce our own chicken again, even if we didn't plan on doing it just yet!

The veg garden is really taking shape. I am however being plagued with slugs 🤢 I am now the crazy woman that walks around the garden at midnight, in her pj's, sporting a head torch and a bucket full of salt water - like a slug murdering dressing gown wearing ninja.

Harry has made an axe throwing range in the garden. Not sure that should have been quite as high on his list of priorities, but I am now slightly scared of how good Oscar is with an axe 🪓

We don't really have time/the funds for a much needed greenhouse this year, so I have turned the porch into a greenhouse. Nobody but me is thrilled with my ingenious idea 🤣

My personal big news is that I have a new job! I am now a gardener at a private estate and I absolutely love it. I grow fruit, vegetables, and cut flowers for the house 👩‍🌾

Oh and Lilly has her driving test next month, so we are risking our lives and taking her out on the roads 🚗

Life is busy, but very full 🩷

I would be the biggest subscriber 😄

When you are trying to take a photo of your new soap, but you have an attention seeking Jack Russell 🤦‍♀️🤣❤

Sunny days are for infusing botanicals in olive oil for some beautiful new soaps, Harry planting 66 trees, the start of a new smallholding project, and of course a million loads of washing 🧺🌼🌲☀️
