Help Getting Started

[Michelle McDines]

Hi everyone,

I've just moved into a property in Stockland Bristol near Bridgwater and am keen to get starting growing my own food on a permaculture basis.

However, now I've started having a root around the land, it doesn't seem to be in a great state.  Things like buried chicken wire, nylon sheeting a couple of inches down and some well established ivy patches.

I was wondering whether there was someone local who might be able to just pop over for a cuppa and a chat to help me figure out whether I should be putting my effort and limited funds into clearing the detritus or instead building raised beds and leaving Arma-garden buried beneath.

Many thanks

Michelle
