Spent an hour or so litter picking @barryisland today… it was much needed but I’m not sure I’d have paid to park to do it (in the cold wind with a willing 4 year old). Sad to think most of the beaches we litter pick will require paid parking under current plans @lisburnett.bsky.social

Birds are stocking up so they can hide for #biggardenbirdwatch … 5 mins staring out the window and there was Blackbirds, Great Tits, Blue Tits, Goldfinches, Chaffinches, a Robin and a Wren 🐦🪶

I will never stop feeling grateful to have this 5 mins away… the freedom to pick up from nursery and head to do some beachcombing if the sky is blue cannot be understated. High tide left a multitude of treasure #barryisland #beachcombing #mermaidspurse

1st seed delivery of the year today… separated in produce and flowers! If you see any that you’re going to want to buy then let us know so we can adjust how many we grow 😀#peatfree #grownfromseed #Alex13 #Tomas11 #Emilia3 #cf63

Frosty green roof this morning #nature #sedum #greenroof

In this video we take a HUGE pile of pallets and turn them into usable, workable timber… hard work and time consuming #reduce #reuse #recycle #eco #brothers

We’ve got a Birthday in the Seeder Wood house tomorrow… Tomas turns 1️⃣1️⃣… wonder if we can get to 100 followers before then? 🙏🏻🤔 #brotherinbusiness #workmates #bestmates

Bespoke Planters… made to measure #juniorwoodworking #Alex13 #Tomas10

In the spring we sell home grown peat free plants that we’ve grown from seed in our greenhouses and nurtured into life! This is via a weekly ‘available plants’ email and people ‘pay what they think things are worth’ via an honesty box 💚💚💚

Here are some of the beautiful and unique bug homes we have made! We fill them with natural, sustainable material and have great fun experimenting #handmade #madeinwales #Alex13 #Tomas10 #Emilia4

We’ve been experimenting with pyrography… these were all hand burnt as reusable tags! We’ll have a stall in the summer where the boys will sell things made by Seeder Wood. (Will include bug homes, planters, tealight holders, bird boxes) Any suggestions welcome 😀

Emilia (age 3) planting broad beans a couple of months ago… these are now growing well with a high germination rate! Getting children involved early is so important #allotment #growyourown

Trying to grow this account… give us a follow if you fancy some wholesome content of hardworking kids… allotment/woodworking/nature etc! This is Tomas (age 10) fighting with the rotavator #kids #growyourown

Last day with 2/3rds of the crew before school STEALS them all back tomorrow. We headed to @nationaltrust.bsky.social Dyffryn Gardens and the universe treated us to a DOUBLE RAINBOW (look carefully) above the house 😍🌈 #doublerainbow

It has been a few weeks off the woodwork but #Alex13 was back using the pocket jig today to make a simple frame 🪵 #juniorwoodoworking

Filmed in the hope that one of them would fall over… (Tomas nearly went over) #PencoedtreWood

Lovely toot toot from UKD BLUEFIN as we waved as it left Cardiff Docks… made the childrens day! Little things make the world go round 😁🌍

Seeder Wood boys #Alex13 and #Tomas10 helping to fit some joinery today #skillsforlife #juniorwoodworkers

She’ll soon be offering Rickshaw rides along the island at half Nessa’s rates… #GavinAndStacey #BarryIsland

And the second job was collecting Lichen for Santa’s Reindeer - because everyone knows they eat Lichen not carrots!! Our Christmas Eve tradition 🥰

1st Christmas Eve job…..At the allotment picking homegrown Sprouts and Leeks for Christmas Dinner #homegrown #growyourown #Alex13 #Tomas10 #Emilia4

Caffiene in all forms today… Two poorly ones and one that wakes up for fun 😂 At least they took it in turns to need me 🤒 #Carousel #Mum #LuckyToBeMummy

I know we are being quiet but… Alex turned into a TEENAGER yesterday…. Emilia was in her first Nativity this morning, Tomas sang wonderfully in the Carol Concert this afternoon and this evening we have swimming lessons at 3️⃣different times. ⏰🏃🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️#busy

Gifting a pile of these to @standrewsmajor for the PTA to sell at Dinas Powys Dickensian Fayre on 6th Dec. Made from a damaged table top 🎄🤶🎅🏻 #Alex12 #Tomas10 #CutePhotoInTheBackground

Did some pond maintenance today and the froggies came and told us to stop… so we did #allotmentlife #naturepond

This MASSIVE polystyrene ball had been thrown over the fence onto our allotment… I can see them for sale online for £30ish… but what would you use it for?? Please tag anyone who might know (PS. The kids had great fun with it!) ❓❓🤷‍♀️#flytipping #dumped #answersonapostcard
