Natures marvel of life, my pond teams with hundreds of tadpoles - Nature in a Permaculture Garden 4

Each day as I work with nature in my permaculture garden, is another day of peace and enlightenment.

My pond which is fed from a natural spring well, is now teaming with animated life. Tadpoles hug the bank moving throughout the day to captured the late spring sunshine. It is only a very few of these wonderful creatures which will make it to become frogs and explore the wider garden. When those that do make it out into the garden they will help me in my endless endeavour the bring the slug population to a manageable level. Everyday as I wander about my forest garden I see nature at work, sometimes working against me such as the proliferation of weed growth, particularly at this time of year, but when I see nature working for me as in the number of these potential slug controllers I do whatever I can to assist their development. It is so beautiful to simply sit and watch these wonderful little creatures darting about the pond. As Permaculture is a system for living, the well being of your soul is as important as any other component of a permaculture system. This scene certainly lifts my soul every time I experience this amazing display of nature.

Through this series of #shorts I will be capturing scenes throughout the year in my #permaculture garden. As I slowly turn a couple of acres into a food forest I will film some moments that bring joy to my heart. I hope they serve as a reminder for you also how wonderful a garden is.

A garden can be shaped and adorned to suit many tastes, desires and needs. In my own case, I have an interest in growing food. Nowadays almost everything I plant produces food of some kind, secondly I grow plants with a medicinal value, others which add essential value to other plants or creatures, I also enjoy plants which have a positive psychological emphasis, plant which lift my own spirit and the spirit of those you visit my garden, plants which delight the eye but particularly the nose. For me a garden is a place of great beauty and peace.

I spend many hours in my garden. Time takes on a different meaning for me when I'm in the garden, it seems to disappear and loose it's relevance. The world outside takes on a different meaning when I am in the garden, it seems further away and yet it all seems right there in this garden. I too, take on a different meaning when I am in the garden, I become one with nature.
