Where I am now

For the past 10 years, I have been living out in the wilds and making a concerted effort to restock the surrounding countryside, with many rare native plants, also with native broadleaved deciduous woodland.

This is now the tenth year, so much of my work has grown quite a bit and becomes more of a reward each year, as trees get bigger and clumps of plants become more established.

All my trees and plants are stocked from local and wild sources. For this I am unpaid and often plant in the dead of night. My day job is also Horticulture based, but with only comparatively little benefit to mother nature.

Where I find myself now, is at a crossroads in life. What do I really want to do?

The decision I have reached, is that; with a little bit of ingenuity, I should be able to make a living one way or another, from a website (& blog), to be able to fund me to plant trees and wild plants full time and to be able to stop my day job, meaning a projected tenfold increase in what I can feasibly achieve and with all the desired benefit that that should bring to our shattered Eco-systems and to our future generations.
