@ethicalfarmIE @foodborn @ShaunaReports @MyLovelyHorseR We keep freeerange outdoor reared pigs, in our pig forest.We see every day how intelligent, interesting and active they like to be. It’s unthinkable that in today society we deem it acceptable to crate or keep animals in this way 😢

99% of pigs in Ireland spend their lives in confinement unable to carry out natural behaviours. Imagine the torment of being trapped in a crate too narrow to turn around in? Thank you @ShaunaReports for highlighting our campaign @MyLovelyHorseR #LifeInLockdown #PigAwareIreland

Pigs need a wallow so they can cool down! #permaculture #pigs #wallow

@TraceyInkson @GROWTH_Col_UK @charlesdowding How awful for you! What soil/compost did you use?

@GROWTH_Col_UK @charlesdowding Sadly my new market garden has been wiped out despite me testing to the third leaf it only showed after a heavy rain and after I’d invested £12,000 starting up and just about ready to harvest for my first year csa now I’m in ruins with a field full of poison.

When people buy this stuff, quite innocently, they’re unlikely to read the small print which advises against putting grass clippings into compost of their green bin. This and other brands containing pyralids are partly responsible for the heartache of failing crops for so many

#reuserecycle our talented volunteers turned this old bath into a fab arty garden feature. It will be used as a mini pond for wildlife (humans will be excluded) #volunteer #gardendecor #GardeningFun #Permaculture

Tools of the trade when you are digging foundations! Millie was supervising...#colliedog #digging #Building #Permaculture

Using wood offcuts from our trees we mill ourselves, to create borders for the garden beds. It will stop the grass from creeping into the beds and save time and energy when weeding. Also looks a lot neater. Our #volunteers have done a fab job #Permaculture #gardening #spring

One of the joys of spring - tulips in their amazing colours. Happy Monday folks
