"Self-sufficiency does not mean 'going back' to the acceptance of a lower standard of living. On the contrary, it is the striving for a higher standard of living, for food that is organically grown and good, for the good life in pleasant surroundings... and for the satisfaction that comes from doing difficult and intricate jobs well and successfully." John Seymour ~ Self Sufficiency 2003
Continuing the introduction of new friends to old friends, please won't you join me in welcoming Jeannine from Scottburg, KwaZulu in Natal.
Janine has two blogs - the first is a blog about organic gardening and permaculture. There is a mine of information on her blog. And she has also written a book about companion planting and organic gardening - and how do I know? Well, I entered a competition on Sprig a week or so ago to win one of 4 signed copies she is offering.
Her other blog is showcase for her artwork - and she has some wonderful work which she has on display - my favourite piece is this one :)
Jeannine, I reply to all comments (even those placed on old postings), but given the size of this planet, and the different time zones, it may not be today by your time, but will certainly be by tomorrow. And, if I am on the farm it may take a little longer...LOL

Thank you for taking the time to comment - it makes my day and removes the "loneliness' of sitting at my screen blogging supposedly to myself ;) I try and reply as quickly as possible so please forgive me if sometimes my response is delayed.
