As you may know, I am currently on tenterhooks awaiting the birth of Marigold’s kid/kids. No show as of yet!… but I am checking her twice during the night now and I keep expecting to find her with a kid or two at foot when I go out to do the morning feed rounds. Will add pics here when the event happens! But kids are not the only new life here at Riverside. We have an abundance of new life here at the moment.. seeds are germinating, plants are growing, eggs are hatching. I love this time of year. Here are a few photos to capture some of the life bursting forth here right now. xx
The proud mum!
Seedlings and plants growing!
Vibrant pink growth on the baby Tree Spinach plants.
and an unexploded Marigold
I am SO blessed to be able to grow my own food, rear my own livestock, encourage wildlife to live here and nurture nature.
I cherish every day that I get to live here xx
