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.

Fabulous evening with Jackie Morris and Seckou Keita Music at Hellens

This was absolutely fabulous. Ian and I were entranced. Packed out hall at Helens, despite the heat!

BEAUTIFUL evening with Jackie Morris and Seckou Keita Music at Hellens last evening - poetry, painting, gilding, colour and music - what a unique, magical and memorable evening - generosity and warmth.
