I accidentally prepare a midnight feast for a mouse, bottle feed my first lamb, learn about the benefits of egg mobiles and doff my cap to our seedlings' first true leaves.

We've been building the beds for the market garden, watching out for lambs, eating our first harvest and enjoying time together.

My first two weeks at Henbant have been filled with delicious food, laughter around the dinner table, roaring fires, cows, chickens, sheep, brambles and plenty of lessons in regenerative agriculture.

I get back in the community garden, harvest the fruit and veg and discover a rather unusual trombone squash.
