Hello and welcome to The Compost Bin. I'm Compostwoman and I live with my family in rural Herefordshire. We have nearly four acres of garden and woodland, all managed organically and to Permaculture principles, which we share with Chickens, Cats and assorted wildlife. We also grow a lot of our own food, run courses in all sorts of things and make a lot of compost!

I am a Master Composter and have spent more than a decade as a volunteer Community Compost adviser with Garden Organic and my local Council.
I'm a self employed Environmental Educator so I run workshops and events where I talk about compost, veg growing, chicken keeping, cooking, preserving and sustainable living. I also run crafts workshops and Forest School/outdoor play sessions in our wood.

We try to live a more self sufficient lifestyle here, as best we can, while still having a comfortable life and lots of fun.

Water leak update. 

Everything out of the room ( all the preserving/brewing/baking supplies as well as all the store cupboard stuff - now spread around the rest of house )

Skirting boards off, whole kitchen floor up and inner wall lining removed - 


Flooring is ruined whole room will need replacing and relaying.  Another job to do, in a room which was not done that long ago and was not on the list to be re decorated for many years.

Still, only floor is damaged, not food or precious equipment or even more precious people and other animals. Cats not impressed with the chaos, though.
