April with Simone, Lawrence and Sebastien

 
Simone, Lawrence and Sebastien, a dynamic, inseparable and talented trio, had great fun and got involved in all sorts of projects:


Simone, a biology graduate from Germany,
 began her stay by grouting the stones of
one of the terrace keyholes using lime and sand ....
 
Lawrence and Simone worked together to prepare
the edible beds around the terrace ...
 
Sebastien, a children's 'animateur' worked with
Simone on the second keyhole - they secured the
edges with clay earth and grouted with lime and
sand in between the stones.
 
The trio working together on the edible terrace ...




A little artistic break ...

 
 
Simone and Lawrence creating planting areas
around a keyhole ....
 

Simone the warrior queen ...

Lawrence and Simone bringing over logs to edge
the yoga lawn area ...



Simone helped to level the 'yoga lawn'
 




We'll seed it to create a level lawn area
for yoga/meditation or just hanging out ...


Creating with found objects ...
... appreciating the beauty of the flora and fauna ...
 
Simone and Lawrence researching projects ... Simone
read and made notes on how to create an edible
wildlife pond while Lawrence read up about
herb spirals ....
Scything the vegetation before starting to dig out
the pond ...
 
Using the broadfork to loosen the
soil before digging out ...
Voila!! A cleared area for the pond project ..
.
A stretching break ...
Lots of singing and drawing ....

Thank you so much for all your enthusiasm, good humour, laughter, debates, energy, creative cooking and artistic input .... à la prochaine ...
