This month I am joining forces with the #30DaysWild campaign
connecting with nature and learning about the wonderful world in which we live.
Today I thought I’d share with you a photo walk of our
garden. As you do not have to go far in
order to connect with wildlife.
Stepping through the back door of the house into our garden
you are confronted with our shed. We've made do with this shed since we moved
in and it does the job ie. it houses our gardening tools. My favourite parts of
the shed are these gorgeous outdoor terracotta pieces we bought at an auction.
Perhaps I could use them to inspire a makeover one day akin to those gorgeous
she sheds you see in craft magazines. Hey a girl can dream right?
Opposite the shed is our Rose patch.
As you can see from this photo our daughter loves the garden
and she has her own little area for playing hopscotch.
At the bottom of the garden amongst the birds and the bees ....ok not quite peas but garden beans are being grown. There's also a tree and a compost heap.
Along the left hand side of the garden is another patch that my husband uses to grow potatoes and carrots. Of course colour is something we love as a family and this purple is a perfect example of that.
That tree is beautiful! Love a bit of blossom! #bloggerclubuk

DeleteI love your garden. I wish ours was so secluded. We have a block of flats looking into our garden

Thank you. Our neighbours can look into our garden but then equally we can look into theirs.
DeleteI like your terracotta pieces and your patch of beans - would love to grown more fruit and veg in our garden #bestandworst
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteWow! The blossom on your tree is stunning and I am impressed by your vegetable patch too. I can appreciate a garden but my OH is the gardener in our relationship! ;) #homeetc
ReplyDeleteThank you. The garden is very much my hubby's domain.
DeleteWe're joining in the #30DaysWild too. I can see your garden as a real retreat. Beautiful. Wonderful that you all have your spots in it. Lovely touches of colour.
ReplyDeleteFantastic. I do love it despite thinking it needs a few tweaks. Nature sure comes in beautiful colours.
DeleteUgh what beautiful roses! I wish I had some. I usually buy one bloom at the florist. We planted a load of buddleia last year so looking forward to lots of purple this summer #bestandworst
ReplyDeleteThank you. Nature sure comes in lovely colours.
DeleteI love a sneak round someone else's garden! I don't tend to grow a lot of roses myself, but I do admire other people's - yours looks lovely! And good luck with your beans! #HomeEtc
ReplyDeleteThank you. The green beans taste really good when they are ready. We grew some too long once mind.
DeleteWow how gorgeous, what a lovely space for the kids to play in :) Thanks for linking up #bestandworst

DeleteHi Helena, what a lovely garden you have, and you're right you don't have to venture far to connect with nature. Your rose is beautiful colour.
