About Us.
Byther Farm is a small organic homestead, being designed and managed using permaculture practices. We aim for self-sufficiency in fruit and vegetables for increased self reliance and better resilience to the modern world. I recognise that we are unlikely to be truly self sufficient, but do the best we can. I share our home with my loving husband, Mr J and our cat, Monty.
We are a fifty-something couple who live on a smallholding in Carmarthenshire, Wales. We are going green and creating a gentler, cleaner and more healthy life for our family.
Having had a highly successful smallholding in Monmouthshire, we hope to recreate the abundance at our new home. There will be a large organic kitchen garden with no dig gardening raised beds and young food forest in which to grown our fruit and vegetables.
We keep a few sheep and Aylesbury ducks.

😆When you love gardening, and your husband buys you roses for your birthday 😆I love it!
I know!!
The roses will look lovely in those garden beds. I love how you use things that you make do with the materials you have on hand.
Thanks so much 😊 There's no point in buying yet more stuff when there's so much of it laying around here.
Love the hanging anti-slug table! I get ideas every time you share your useful scrounged things.
I am so jazzed about this hanging bed contraption. Looks like something I would do, but around here, it would be ill-fated...I can just see all the woodland creatures swinging wildly from it, once they'd got the hang, complete with disco ball and pulsing colored lights...lol ( we have no covered area/tunnel and lots of trees.) I love this plan and really hope it works!
the hanging seed tray table is a stroke of genius!
Thanks, I've been doing this for a few years now and am pleased with the results.
Great idea Liz. Never doubt the ingenuity of a gardener.
I have been throwing Tea Leaves on to my garden & still doing it now , as it’s meant to give the ground additional nutrients . 😊
I feel reassured by your less than immaculate garden, it feels like you are growing with nature instead of fighting to control it🤗
The garden is never immaculate in the sense of being tidy, but it is perfect as a home to many wildlife!
@@LizZorab and that is lovely
I love the hanging seed table. Ingenious 😊
Yes! AbunDANCE 💖👣✨🌈 have Fun!!
🐝 Thanks for the great video 🌻 I just love roses !!
I do too! 🌹
A really enjoyable video, Liz. Loving the new style, and I'm inspired to build a suspended seedling table, too 💚
Thanks Tanya! I rather like the gardening at this time of year - all the prep stuff before the slugs and snails wake up to eat everything in sight!
Hi Liz. I love standard roses. They reminded me of my father's rose garden at the front of our house. Thanks . ❤ Margaret in Cyprus
There is something very old-fashioned about them, which is why I love them.
Happy Birthday
Thank you!
Hey Liz, JUst finished your book :D A wonderfull read with a cup of tea, as my companion. You are such an in spiration to me :D I just started my own garden journey last year, with the purchase of our house.
Thank you! Which book was it? Grounded or The Seasoned Gardener? Either way, it would be super-helpful if you'd leave a review on Amazon 😃
Thanks for sharing!❤
You are so welcome!
Good practical work Liz.
Thank you!
So nice seeing your utilization of both space & time (winter). Lovely roses !🌹 Can't wait to see them in bloom.
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching and for commenting - it's much appreciated!
Thank you so much for saying it’s too early for starting seeds! I frequently watch other channels that say the opposite and often start my whole gardening year with failed seeds. I’ll be patient this year.
I have created a series of what to sow videos and I start each one by saying, adjust times to your area and explain whether heat and lights would be needed.
Those roses should be spectacular for years to come! I have to find the flower seeds for the coming year, have absolutely no idea what the seasons will do.
Are you going to secure the grid and drain pans? I would only because I am such a clutz, probably knock them around.
Happy belated birthday. 🇨🇦🌹
Yes, I will secure the grid once I have made sure the poles are level.
Good to see that the weather there has allowed you some time in the garden! Looking forward to seeing the roses blooming throughout your growing season. Cheers from downunder!!
I've been watching your garden with a tinge of envy - it looks so lush and abundant!
💚@@LizZorab
Liz is enjoying your style of gardening it follows my sentiments exactly.
Thanks, glad you are enjoying it.
Lovely video liz❤ the roses are gonna be lovely🌹I also appreciate using sustainable practices in your garden. Thanks for sharing😊
Thanks so much 😊
You remind me so much of me lol! I make do with what I have and get the job done, stand back and think; Aahhhhh! I'm currently getting my veg beds made for the first time, using hazel as mini hurdles and pallet collars. so satisfying when you can do things yourself. New subbie here in Yorkshire! Happy growing!
Hello and welcome to my channel, I hope you'll find lots of things here to inspire and help you.
I can not wait to see your beautiful roses!! What a great hack for getting things up off the ground! I can only garden with grow bags and pots where I currently live. I plan on using some old shelving we kept to put my pots on. So many ideas to think about!❤
It will be exciting to see whether they flower this year or not, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they do!
@@LizZorab Me as well!!🌹
nice video ilz
Thanks! I'm glad to have had some time in the garden this week.
Hi Liz I sowed my Asturian cabbage tree seeds 4 days ago nothing had popped up yesterday so i put them on my heat mat with my chilies, I just been check on them and everyone has popped up :)))
I hope you'll enjoy them.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Happy belated Birthday! Great idea with the roses
Thank you! Cheers!
Good video,happy belated birthday 🎉🎊🎂
Thank you!
This sealing off of the native soil (mine has clay as well) is why I have switched away from these dense membranes to cardboard. The mixing starts much quicker.
I have used this cornstarch membrane to allow myself to build a deeper level of compost above the membrane before it breaks down. I want to ensure that fewer seeds are exposed to light and reduce the chances of all the field weed seeds germinating.
I wonder why the powers that be can't use the biodegradable, plastic free membrane for shopping bags? Just a thought. Wonderful garden Liz. I love this preparation and planning time of year. So pregnant with hope ! Can't wait to see the roses in flower.❤
That's a great idea! I'll mention it to the manufacturers and see if it's something they would do.
Formidable 😊
A bientôt
Merci beaucoup!
@@LizZorab c'est avec plaisir
❤
👍
Might be a silly question but did you tie off the grid to the poles so everything remains together if it gets bumped?
I will tie the grid to the poles once I've taken the spirit level to check for level poles.
Hi, what was names of the roses? Sorry if I have missed it 😊
You didn't miss it, I didn't mention their variety. These are Desdemona from David Austin Roses (it was a wonderfully generous gift for my birthday this year).
They are wonderful! I am a massive fan of David Austin roses myself
Hi! Are you living on a one planet development ? I’m really interested in the scheme.
Hi, no we don't live on a OPD site, it's a regular smallholding with 250 year old cottage, barns and paddocks.
