People are hearing about it and I've never had a negative reaction to people about the garden.

But people offer us things.

The raised beds are made from scaffold boards that were given to us by the local builder.

He just contacted me and said, we have 100 old scaffold boards and we can't use them anymore.

So we now have 25 raised beds, I'd say, where we had four and the materials cost us nothing.

So people walking through the village, particularly the kids go, there's the garden guy.

So I'm the garden guy in Stamolin, I suppose.

It could be worse things, it could be worse things.

I'm delighted with that title, actually.

Absolutely.

I think it's very important to grow with nature rather than looking at ourselves as outside of nature and against nature.
