| | Podcast appearance | I was a guest on Sarah Wilson’s Roots and All podcast, unsurprisingly talking about forest gardens. As it’s my favourite gardening podcast, it is quite the honour and mildly terrifying, appearing alongside a glittering roster of gardening luminaries. I hope I’ve conveyed the potential of forest gardening but I still haven’t plucked up the courage to listen to myself! Please do subscribe to the podcast (Apple or Android), each & every episode worth listening to 🙂Episode 46: Introduction to Forest Gardening with Jake Rayson | View this email in your browser | | | Share | | | Forward | Forest garden articles galore | I have been hard at work converting my old blog posts into proper reference material, with short and bookmarkable names like | forestgarden.wales/definition | To save you even more brain ache and finger typing, I’ve created an index of all the articles fit for public consumption: | forestgarden.wales/articles/ | | | | Greenfield garden design | I finished a design for a client in Poland, 1 acre site with new build Passivhaus and outbuildings. Hardest part was figuring out the paths, which flow from how the garden functions in relation to the house.

I have a free mini-course if you’re interested in learning how to make your own plan. Hi-res image. | | | | Give me plants! | That’s enough computer screens for one newsletter. On the plant front, I’ve been planting loads of trees that my neighbour gifted to me (Stone Pine, Sweet Chestnut & Pecan). It is very sad, he has left the UK because of Brexit 😢. But what I am really looking forward to is flowers, UK native flowers. I have a modular planting experiment on the go, inspired by Benjamin Vogt’s A New Garden Ethic. Flowers! Colour! Life! See you in Spring 😎 |
