Hi, I havent posted much but have been lurking for some time so thought it would be polite to say hello.
I am from East Sussex and am a bit of a jack of all trades - started out in fashion design, moved into photographic science, sideways into magazine production then left the big city smoke behind to come back to the countryside to have my 1st child and retrain as a medical herbalist. I then moved into childrenswear design/cloth nappies/wool dyeing alongside the herbal stuff, but the last couple of years I have been more and more involved with my other half's farm and we have been getting the place set up for educational access/care farming/forest school/ bushcrafty stuff, which so far has required far far far too much beaurocratic paperwork and not enough practical fun.
however we have finally finished all that red tape stuff and I have done my first 2 school visits and am looking forward to doing lots more and getting down to some enjoyment of our woodland.
This is a great forum and I am really pleased to have found it, i have learned alot and hope to come to some of the meets in the future.
