We are part of an exhibition at the Sessions Gallery in Newport, Pembrokeshire. All of our art and craft work is represented. Annie's beautiful ceramics, Sally's prints and cards and David's cabinet work. The exhibition runs through to the New Year. If you are after a present for someone special you need look no further!

Opening times are 9.30-13.00, 14.00-17.00 Monday to Saturday. Call in and have a browse. The gallery is upstairs at the picture framer's in East Street.

After a very successful and fun day at the Newport Green Fair on Saturday we have decided to have a stall at the St. Dogmaels Christmas Fayre this Sunday, 4th December. It's on from 11 until 4 at the Abbey. See you there...

We now have a series of seven greetings cards available. Look in Sally's section and click on cards.

We are part of a local market in Newport, Pembs every Monday morning 9 until 1. Come and meet us on the Cilgwyn stall. We have books, cards and produce for sale and it is a good social start to the week. See you there.

If you are near Rhosygilwen Mansion, at Rhoshill near Cardigan, on Sunday (18th September) then join us at Penfro Book Festival. We have a stall there and Sally will be signing books and prints. See you there...

A big thank you to Kerry, our most recent wwoofer, who brightened up our week and helped process the abundance of fruit that is around this month, diolch yn fawr.

We have reprinted the sequel to 'The Fat of the Land'. 'I'm A Stranger Here Myself' follows John and his family from Suffolk to West Wales where they farmed 62 acres.

Another reprint of 'The Fat of the Land' is now available. We have changed the cover back to Sally's original from 1961. It marks the 50th year in print for 'The Fat of the Land'. Quite an achievement!

Go to John Seymour's section of our site and grab a copy or two!

Our son Badger has married Yasemin. We all had a fantastic weekend of ceremony and revelry. Thanks to everyone who helped, there were quite a lot of you. There was a big hole in the sky for the whole weekend and the sun shone through. Llongyfarchiadau!

Well, May is the time for swarming bees. We watched these swarm onto a gingko tree. Wonderful.

Well, finally got round to posting some news. It has been all go in the garden, so little time to draw breath. The veg patch is growing fast. Broad beans, spuds and peas are in and various beans are sprouting. All the polytunnel seeds are germinated and growing well, raring to go, tomatoes, peppers, chillies, aubergines, cucumbers, melons etc. The overwintered veg has survived the cold, the garlic looks particularly healthy. We've taken a few more big trees down and have got a couple of years worth of firewood to process. Anne's flower beds are a riot of spring colour. We have been doing some long overdue landscaping and the place is looking better for it. Just got to keep at it and do a bit of work too!

We've been felling more trees recently to reduce shade and give us a plentiful supply of firewood. Great to be outside and watching spring creep up on us.
