A few years ago I planted my artichokes in the front yard of the cottage back in town. Even though I no longer live there I see it every few days when I pick up and drop off the girls. It’s just starting to come into season, but it’s not quite ready yet, the heads haven’t even developed into anything more than an idea. Thankfully I have some other options. A few text messages, an offer of rabbit and a deal is struck. I pick up the box left of artichokes on the veranda from Jane’s place. A friend who’s right into permaculture. Jane’s a mega active community figure that works tirelessly promoting the backyard food bowl approach in her town of Ballarat. Please…
