About me



I'm a half Finnish designer who has since taken a break to bring up my children. I used to work in Graphic Design, but now I prefer working with textiles and illustration. This blog is about my allotment and garden. I have been gardening for many years and grew up watching my mum and dad do the same. I began my allotment in Jan 2010 in memory of my father who passed a way just before then. I also love cooking and finding inventive and delicious ways to make my produce into meals. I'm growing with my experiences, and welcome any helpful advice! Sometime soon I hope to use my garden as inspiration for my art.

Great plans

I have been at the allotment twice since the New Year passed, I have taken down all the old netting and bean supports, pulled out as much old vegetation as possible and weeded the asparagus. I have high hopes for my asparagus, despite pretty much neglecting it all winter! I will try and get some compost on them soon to give them a little boost before spring. I also pruned my raspberries rather haphazardly.
