Smallholding Self Sufficient Meal


Just a short post to let you all know that today we enjoyed our first self sufficient meal of the season.

We know that we are never going to be totally self sufficient here but we do try to grow as much as we can to keep what we have to buy to an absolute minimum.


On todays menu Sharon cooked up our own raised very free range chicken accompanied by cabbage, carrots & new potatoes all from our polytunnel the gravy was made from the vegetable water.
Hopefully there will be many more self sufficient meals to come from our smallholding, I will keep you posted.
