Late last summer I travelled to Orkney to study and gain a training certificate in permaculture design with Graham Bell and his training assistants. It had always been my intention to do this after attending an Introduction course back in 2010. In the years in between I have moved several times due to work commitments and for now I am settled in Tayport. I wouldn’t class myself as a ‘gardener’ or ‘permaculturalist’, I am more someone who has a deep passion for life on Earth and a keen interest to create a life that is in greater harmony with the Earth, its seasons and to play whatever part I can in building a regenerative future. I have fond memories from childhood out in the garden with my Dad who loved to grow things and what little experience I have comes from those memories topped up with a love for nature. In my blogs I will chart my journey from the Permaculture Design Course to creating a small permaculture garden in Tayport.
