The Compost Bin: Wales, Day 3

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.

Wales, Day 3

Today we went to Castell Henllys

Compostgirl decided to have a go at the sensory trail :)

Then needed to wash her feet! Fortunately there was a handy ( or should that read footy?) stream

Me, by the Sacred Spring

We made some crowns

Compostgirl by the offerings people leave at the Sacred Spring.

The top of the hill and the reconstructed Iron Age roundhouses.

It came on to rain so we sheltered inside one and had a lovely chat to another couple.

There is now an excellent visitor center at the site where we had a yummy lunch and bought some things from the shop.

Afterwards, it was really raining hard but we decided to carry on to Llangranog, to the beach.
