poet_in_hermitage.jpgOn second thoughts - almost forgot we had the rest of the week to go! (by the way I am writing this from the Tatton tent which is at present being deluged by the tail end of a passing storm - however, we are close to a flower bed containing Noah's Ark so there is an escape route!).

The garden has been a great success with the public. It's also been enhanced this week by the presence of the Cheshire Poet Laureate, W. Terry Fox, reading landscape inspired poetry: his own, some from local school Manor Park Primary in Knutsford and even poems from would-be bards among Tatton staff!

toby_and_team.jpgMingling in and out of the crowds all week have been many gardening celebrities, including two 'bits of lads' I knew when they were students: namely Joe Swift and Toby Buckland. It was good to catch up on old times - though they reckon they are not so old.

Finally we met up with Gilly, chief blogger for this event!

So all it remains is to dismantle everything early next week, put everything in store and continue to plan for next year. See you then!

A beautiful decoration of the surrounding rice fields. This lily pond is like a piece of natural God made jewelry well preserved by its owner-farmer for the entire farm land around.
People love to add some fancy colors to their God made beauty to feel good. Nature too loves if you add some beauty to all the production farmland or garden.
Use about one third of your total garden or farm land just for such beautiful wild pieces of nature, ponds, little jungle areas, wild grass, wild herbs and wild flowers, etc.
Result: A happy garden, a happy nature stronger, healthier and well balanced in energy. Thus no more need for any kind of chemicals or artificial fertilizer or any other artificial products.
Successful organic gardening and farming needs such pieces of true beautiful wilderness amidst all productive land. Be generous with the percentage of land offered to God and nature! The reward is infinitely well worth your generosity in love toward nature. Whatever you do to nature - you also do to God and you as well.
For your information: The rice plants around this pond is about 1.80 meter high .... Strong, healthy and totally free of any chemicals or fertilizer.
In the Philippines typically the rice plants are far less than have the size and all living on abundance of chemicals even in most remote provincial areas. Why? Because chemicals is good for the marketing people all the way. It gives profits selling, later it brings profits to pharmaceutical industry because all people more and more sick needing medical care ... means it also is good business for medical insurance because people can be convinced to buy insurance if you first poison an entire population until all have all kinds of medical problems or health issues.
God however made all nature just like jungle - to grow strong and healthy all the way natural. You just need to know how by learning from nature, by observing nature, by copying nature, by asking God for inspiration!
