Hello world, my husband and I married 4 years ago this month, after meeting online and dating for a few months (but that is another story)! We blended two families and between us have 6 children, but four years ago, had 4 living at home only as the other 2 adult children of mine were living independently. We could have bought a 3 bedroom home that was completely renovated but with 6 of us and my motherinlaw about to move in also, we had to find somewhere bigger. Our budget found us a home in Bundaberg that was big enough for us all, but 60 years old with nothing having been done to it since it was first built. It is a 1200 sq metre block and had a few big trees out the front and one beautiful Norfolk pine in the backyard down the side, but that was it.
Since we bought the house 3 years ago we both started reading and discovering the wonderful philosophy and way of life that is permaculture. This blog is about documenting our journey in growing our own food and attempts to be successful at it whilst both working fulltime, having a 17 year old son who is special needs (autistic spectrum disorder), looking after nan (aged 86 years), our other 3 children, as well as 2 dogs and 2 cats.
