In my happy place 🪻✨️🌸🌱

I'll tell you one thing for free, you definitely don't need a jacket in the polytunnel this week, it's more like taps aff temperatures and I'd be sooner caught swannying about in my bra than this big fleece today 😂😅🥵

Taking a few slow days to catch up before a serious bit of seed sowing and planting this next week or two. I'll bring you all along later in the week, but for now, I'm away to sit on my backside and sun myself for a minute.

Howdy, it's been a busy few weeks of prep and planning behind the scenes, 8and I've not sat down to post anything on the grid for a while, because frankly it takes me an age and sometimes I just am not in the mood for insta faffery 🙃

A spring update...over watered my gorgeous lemon tree and am now hoping it comes back from the brink. Not sure on it's chances. Everything else in the polytunnel is bursting into life and changing everyday, and I've got lots to sow this week for the kitchen garden. In other good news, the rhubarb has put on a bumper crop and the outside growing patch is finally stoned 🙌

There's always a glass of foraged fizz poured when you visit Forage&Faff HQ, and it's so simple to make. Here's how 👇

- Pick a handful of fresh mint leaves and give them a wash. I tend to break them up roughly in my hands to get lots of the minty goodness into the syrup.
- Add equal parts cold water, sugar and mint leaves to a saucepan
- Bring to the boil and then let it simmer for 10minutes.
- Once cooled, add a generous glug to your drink of choice and enjoy.

It's a perfect match for lemonade, with lots of ice. Also your hands will smell amazing the rest of the day.

A winter wedding amid one of last years storms when the brief was wild and moody. Apparently, the weather got the same memo for today. 💨

It was such a joy to dress the church and with flowers, Forage&Faff style. Just wishing I had a candle set up like this on my dining table today, if the electric goes out you know what I'll be up to!

The Cub turns TWO today. It's been a weekend of cake, cuddles and cute bunting. (It's also been a weekend of the flu and redding up paperwork, reality is all about the balance eh!)

Such a joy to be able to grow this business around my family and especially this year, so thank you guys for being here, supporting Forage&Faff and my dream to be a gentle(wo)man farmer with a basket of flowers always in hand. The Cub is also suitably obsessed with watering cans and sheep. Have a slice of cake on us tonight and celebrate a misty grey Monday. ✨️🥂🍰🥳🍄

A slow slow week in the midwinter snow.

I had great plans to kick this past week off with a bang and hit January running, but another weak of slowly getting into the swing of things has been just the job. And sure, all the paperwork and life admin and endless other to do lists can wait til next week.

I'll catch you all up next week on the craic with Forage&Faff 2025. I'm excited for it!

Howdo 👋

Kicking the new year off with a very warm welcome to you all, and a very big thanks for sticking around while I was busy off faffing about with wreaths and Christmas events the last few months. Excited to be starting 2025 with some time off my 'real job' and lots of time to crack on with lovely Forage&Faff events and styling.

A li'l round up of random things about me/Forage&Faff...

I'm a farmers daughter and TV producer with a love of all things seasonal and foraged style.

I started to restore an abandoned polytunnel on my uncles farm 3 Christmas' ago, and now it's full of flowers and foliage...and still plenty of weeds.

I've always loved faffing about with flowers and now run floristry workshops and events on the family beef and sheep farm.

I married a bearded edjit who makes me laugh a lot and we've got a little terror of a toddler who's inherited our shared love for the outdoors and chocolate.

My favourite place to hang out is in a hedgerow or at the potting table and always with a basket in hand.

I had a few hours in the polytunnel last week, and it left me all excited for next year's flowers and foliage. I even got ahead (probably a stretch of the imagination) with some Sedum cuttings. They're becoming a strong contender for my favourite plant in the tunnel, they're so hardy and I love that they come into thier own in autumn when lots of other flowers are past their best. Oh, and they love to have their heads chopped off, ready to grow into free plants for next year!

I'll show you later in the week how I get lots of free plants from my sedums. It's so quick and easy and completely foolproof.

I'll also show you these dinky little planters I've been using from .uk (pr), they're absolutely mighty!
