Hello from France

[French Lynnette]

Hello from rural south west France.

I moved here with my 11 year old son after a bit of a do with cancer. Nothing like a wake up call to help prioratise your life...

Slowly , and I mean slowly, doing up an old house and reclaiming a garden. We have not much money but are happy and intend to be as self sufficient as possible.

I'm looking forward to getting to now the group and to picking peoples minds...

Welcome and good health to you!
My husband is half French, his mother was from Troy, back in WWII.

Welcome.

One small step at a time.

So are you originally from France or a transplant?

That's what I was wondering, too. I bet your old farm is picturesque and lovely. Run-down or not, there's something about old farm buildings and hedgerows that make me want to ooze into the scenery and absorb the feel of the place.
Anyway, there is lots of good stuff to learn here, and lots of nice folk to help you. It will be interesting to find the differences in how the French garden, what they have available to use, etc.
