Pay it Forward - Another way to Recycle

Over the years the local Pay it Forward Facebook page has enabled us to acquire items at no cost in the couple of years we have lived here. 

 An A-frame hen house with the posts and wire for a small outside run.

Cement blocks that became our compost containers. 

A kitchen sink and taps, destined to be installed as part of a potting table.

Many bricks , some of which became edging for the vegetable beds.

Most of these were going to be taken to the tip if not collected. 

We have offered fire wood from the trees that have been cut down, eggs on occasions we have an excess, apricots when I couldn't keep up with processing of them into jam etc., and books we no longer read or use.

Are there any ways of Paying it Forward or Bartering where you live?

Cheers,

Robyn.

Fresh Start

I'm restarting this blog as Google finally re-established connections so I can comment on the comments, amongst other things.  

In the meantime Covid-19 has appeared, the world has changed and we are all being urged to "make a new normal" - whatever that means. Here on my little patch the chickens still lay eggs, the "pet" horse follows us around the place, the "new"  cat supervises everything and I'm growing vegetables, tending fruit trees, sewing and doing other things that make me happy.

There is a native animal who has laid claim to this patch of land , and I'm happy to share it, and I think miss puss has already had an encounter or two with it and knows to leave it alone. Looking forward to a decrease in pest insects with the new resident arriving.

I'd be happy to have you join me whenever you have the time. 

Cheers, Robyn.
