Hi there! I am excited to start working in the backyard of my relatively new house. It’s south-facing, but there are a few shady spots, and there is a little bit of space on the darker north-facing side.
Here are my plans so far:
– A few kitchen herbs that I always use: dill, parsley, and thyme
– I got seeds for a few dye plants: woad, dyer’s chamomile, and calendula. I also signed up for a project called 1m2 Vlas, where you grow, harvest, and process flax with some workshops from the Crafts Council, so I need to make sure to pick a good spot where the flax (and woad) can grow without getting in the way.
– I have some blue skullcap, lemon balm, passionflower seeds.
I want to try so many things but since this is a new space for me I think it’s better to see how things go first and add from there.
