  • New vessel adorned with our garden flowers. I love the ocher colour of this terracotta clay before firing: wish it would stay this way. . . . #coreopsis #nasturtium #handbuilding #handbuiltpottery #handbuiltceramics #ceramics #ceramic #keramik #keramiek #セラミックス #세라믹 #陶瓷 #clay #pottery #potter #artist #artisan #maker #craft #handcrafted #handmade #handmadeceramics #makersgonnamake #claylife #ceramiclife #ceramicprocess #contemporaryceramics #modernceramics #wip #stilllife

  • The gorgeous Okra ‘Red Burgundy’. It’s our first year growing okra and the fruits are finally here: cannot wait to eat these This plant is incredibly beautiful with its red stems and veins running through lush dark green leaves. The okra pods are a velvet burgundy and we’re waiting to discover what its flowers look like. The buds remind us a little of hibiscuses, don’t you think? We have a tendency to pick unusual seeds so obviously we chose this stunning red variety over the green. Apparently there isn’t much difference in taste and in fact these beauties turn green
  • Hand building a vessel. We divide our work day into wheel work in the morning and hand work after lunch. No points for guess which is currently my favourite session. I have so come to love the rhythmic, tactile making of each piece. Each piece is (unintentionally) slightly off balance, a thing I despised earlier but has now become an aspect of much character. Yes, I could argue I need to improve my skills but I don’t like to play into that insecure voice craving perfection. It’s that shadow self I’m learning to throw off while hand building: clay teaching
  • So deceptively beautiful. Field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis) is the bane of our gardening experience. This Morning Glory look-a-like is everywhere in our garden and from everything we’ve read about it, it’s extremely hard to get rid of. Weeding every 3 weeks for up to 7 years In our first year we simply ignored it not knowing what else to do and ironically in our ignorance we managed to spread it further by cutting up its roots into smaller chunks during our initial dig to create our beds. Every little root fragment went on to make new shoots. We’ve weeded it
  • The pumpkin patch getting wild, overgrowing our compost area. We grow them there for the extra nutrients these babies require. . . . #pumpkin #pumpkinpatch #permaculture #permakultur #permacultuur #パーマカルチャー #permaculturedesign #permakultura #permakulturgarten #growyourfood #growyourgreens #growyourownfood #growyourownveg #growyourownveggies #homegrownfood #homegrownveggies #nodig #nodiggarden #gardener #garden #instagardeners #backyardgardener #gardenersofig #foodforest #foodforestgarden #organicgardening
