Added Extras
Our miniature horses (Fudge, Madam and Guy) are a great source of manure for our garden and they also take care of fruit and vegetable scraps.
Any pruning done is mulched and composted on site and all house-hold organic matter goes into the worm farm. (our worms do not have names!!).
Our milk comes in glass bottles.
We use Jute and cotton bags for shopping. We opt for produce and products in glass, tin and paper bags, over plastic whenever we can.
Anything possible is recycled including cardboard, plastics, glass, aluminium and tin cans to the Resource Recovery Centre in Blenheim
or we reuse it at home i.e. jars, bottles, boxes.
In fact, we are almost at the stage now where very little rubbish is sent to the landfill.
