The garden as it started to come together. (Thanks Jasper.)Son, dog, hens, raised bed. It’s all there.
I made a little home for the guinea pigs in here. They came out every day and mowed the lawn for me. No, by eating it, they couldn’t start the mower. And they fertilised it as they went. Really. Guinea pigs make for great lawns.
Cabbages, herbs, flowers…
It was a place to experiment, find varieties that worked…
…and to see how they mixed together…
Such transient beauty

Guinea pigs do make great lawn mowers. I’ve had piggies for 8 years and never had to mow our lawn since getting them!
