Coming into Our Power

Bealtaine Cottage at the beginning

A sad little cottage, a long time ago.

Love and simplicity has made this little cottage and land, into a much loved home and very productive garden.

  1. Hi Collette
    I love seeing all your pictures of your land and garden. I find it so inspirational. Can I ask how much land you’ve got (approx) in acres? Just out of interest really – and a bit of nosiness too!
    Thanks and all the best for 2013!

    3 acres in total, of north facing, wet, thin soil land, that promised nothing and went on to deliver abundance!
    Have a great New Year, Georgina!

  2. Eight years, wow! Mother Nature can transform with love from us and you have proven it. May all the efforts of those out there working for this transformation be blessed this season.

  6. This is such a timely and beautiful post for me today. I needed these good words. Thank you for reminding me that the most abandoned of places, and situations, can become whole again if we think and work our way towards it.

    I hope my own “sad abandoned cottage” can become one that is a Home.
