Haven’t been to check on progress for a while so lovely to head across the moors to see what has been happening.
On the way I noticed there’s been quite a bit of tree planting along the track that leads to the farm.
Apparently the North York Moors National Park has tree planting grants thanks to monies from the potash mine development.
The farm has benefitted too.
Our astute owner has, as usual, been busy spotting bargains on Facebook Marketplace and at York Auctions:
Normally new bathrooms cost thousands. Not in this case however. Each bedroom will have its own en suite. And here’s the sanitary ware all ready to be installed. The whole lot – less than £200!
Not many changes inside but the kitchen looks great.
Can’t help but feel inspired visiting the farm. The owner is so resourceful and practical – both essential to this massive project she is taking on. Relieved to see she still has boundless enthusiasm and energy plus she’s getting a little bit of help from time to time. I’ll check in again towards the end of the summer to see how she’s doing.
