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.

New hens
Welcome to Aggie and Kim the Marigolds, Ginger the Blacktail, Nightshade the Speckledy and Snowflake the Light Sussex.
We have set up a new enclosure for them so they don't get bullied by the Old Girls and they will stay separate for a couple of weeks to get used to us and the other chickens :)
Aggie and Kim - love it! Hope your new girls all settle in quickly.
