Sonia Christie: Reigate, Surrey, United Kingdom; Avid gardener, cook and environmentalist - or eco-garden bore as my three children would claim! I garden organically and try to cook from scratch using seasonal produce from the garden. We are trying to make our home and garden as environmentally friendly as possible without breaking the bank, and given the usual time restraints of a busy family! I am on heavy clay in drought ridden Surrey, in the south of England, United Kingdom, so face many challenges in the garden! This blog is my way of saving the history in pictures of my family's lives, and a way of sharing the successes and failures of our attempts at an eco friendly lifestyle, so others might be helped in their own attempts (or put off by all our failures!)
