  3. Old thatch from a friends (admittedly quite degraded) roof thatch repair.
    Great for the compost heap!
    Allows aeration & thatch straw is organic!
    The sprays used by farmers on straw to prevent mould etc actually speed up its degredation when used on rooves.

    Helped my friend get rid of some of the waste and to me financial cost zero!

  6. Save your skins! 🍌 When planting out tomatoes, bury two banana skins in the bottom of the hole. They provide a fantastic, slow-release source of potash, crucial for developing flowers & fruit. This organic trick works for any potash-loving plant, like roses or peppers! 🍅

  7. 🌱 Rainwater harvesting is a smart way to save money while helping the environment!

    Here are some key benefits: • Reduces water bills by using harvested rainwater for non-potable uses.

    • Decreases demand on mains water supply, easing pressure on local resources.

    • Provides a reliable source of water during dry spells.

  8. 🌱 On a rainy day, I watched my yard turn into a mini lake, and it hit me—what a waste!

    That’s when I decided to create a rain garden.

    Not only does it soak up the water, but it also adds a splash of life to my landscape.

  11. Did you make mistakes in your first garden? I've been reading Frances Tophill's new book (gifted copy) and thinking about my first plot and how differently I'd tackle it now.
