Ive been living in Spain for the last 8 years now, 4 years ago my husband I bought a 200 year old run down Farm in central France, we Plan to move to France this April and begin the renovation of the building there. I have 4 untouched for 100 years lovely acres of garden which I hope to turn into a Fab Cottage garden. I grow as much as I can from seed as I find there is nothing more satisfying than watching them grow.
Hi there Carol and a very warm welcome to GardenStew from bonnie Scotland. :-D It sounds as though your going to have a busy time of things when you move to France. I hope the renovation works goes smoothly for you and your husband. Do let us see photographs of your progress won't you as we love to share the projects others are undertaking?
Welcome to the forum, and we are all anticipating sharing your renovation project, especially the garden. We are doing the same thing, but in Central Texas on 9 1/2 acres. We've been at it for almost four years, and have never been happier nor dirtier. You're in for a fun time with lots of rewards.
Hi CAROLINEK Welcome to Gardenstew from southern Ontario! Your 'run down farm' sounds wonderful! Can't wait to see your photos!
Welcome from SE Texas. I, too, look forward to sharing your progress and seeing that cottage garden come to life.
Hi Carolinek, Welcome to GardenStew from Chelmsford MA, USA. I wonder what would be growing in a hundred year old garden? Looking forward to pictures. Jerry
Thanks all, Jerry the world is my oyster as what to grow, untouched soil with over 100 years of oak leaves rotting into it
