A very Happy Easter to you! Goodness – hardly feels any time at all since I wished you a Happy Christmas! The arrival of Easter so soon after Christmas, was something I always found puzzling as a child – although of course I coped with the Easter Eggs!

Wintering! Living with the seasons
We’re wintering at Ednovean Farm at the moment. Quietly navigating the passage through the winter days in slow living. These days spent finding a comfortable joy in the small changes that mark the seasons – perhaps perfectly described as Wintering.
A year in The Ednovean Farm Gardens
To spend a year in the Gardens of Ednovean Farm is to take a journey through the seasons. Each year it’ll be an infinitely changeable journey of course. However, ultimately that will be the reward in itself.
The silence of a summer’s day
There’s a deep silence that can only fall as the summers warmth cocoons a Sunday afternoon. A certain contentment, that only falls as the summer garden reaches its’ zenith.
April and May
As spring turns into Summer here in west Cornwall I’ve suddenly I realised that whilst I rush to tell you of the merest dalliance with a winter snowflake , somehow I totally neglect the arrival of hot sunny days.
Changing the seasons to winter and light
Here at Ednovean we’re settling down to the shorter days as we speed towards the Winter Equinox. There’s a definite change to the seasons now and winter beckons with opens arms.
Winter and spring in the blink of an eye
Our Ednovean winter has changed from winter to spring in the blink of an eye. Each week has given a new challenge – nevertheless I know the work that we do in the still short days will pay dividends throughout the summer months.
The seasons of the sun – Our autumn garden
The seasons of the sun still linger in our autumn garden. Warm nestling echoes’ of summer time, that are occasionally met by the rattle of winter’s sabre.
This summer in the Ednovean Farm gardens
The warmth has lingered in the courtyard gardens long into the evening this summer, with the old stone walls soaking up the heat and then slowly releasing the bounty of the day. It was oh so tempting to sit long into the darkness amongst the twinkle of candles. This summer we really did experience a very different life to our usual temperate coastal days!
A year in the Ednovean Farm Gardens – 2021
Now seems the perfect time to look back over 2021 in the Ednovean Farm Gardens. It has been a year that has seen some tweaks and changes to the gardens.
