Inspirational project - Westfield Farm, UK

While here in the UK I visited a permaculture inspired project not far from Bath where there is a fledgling forest garden, orchards, biofuel willow and beekeeping.  Some images from the visit:

The owner Bryony explains how
she is developing the forest garden

Chickens and ducks have a little wooden cabin and
pond and are let out to roam around the forest
garden from time to time
 
This is a young forest garden
that has been planted with
fruit trees, some fruit bushes and
then inter-planted with perennials.

Forest garden - mulched areas between
perennial vegetables

Workshop/teaching space for courses on beekeeping,
willow weaving, forest gardening ......
