The Good Life! – Lets get started!!!

Who would have thought that in the seventies when ‘The Good Life’ was made, it would have been the success it was. Not only did the stars of the show Richard Briers, Felicity Kendal, Penelope Keith, and the late Paul Eddington, honoured with CBE’s; the show itself was ground breaking and ahead of its time.

The show encouraged you to ‘grow your own’ products and live from your land which wasn’t the norm in domestic middle class England at the time, and Penelope Keith’s character who lived next door to the radicals, sniffed at their way of life and preferred to get her food for the local supermarket, considering this better than ‘home grown’  -  funny how things have changed! – if only she knew how expensive organic food is now, she would have maybe listened  and learn’t more from her neighbours!

If you are not familiar with the show go to ‘The Good Life’ it is fantastic! This is a good example of  self-sufficiency at its best!

If you are just beginning ‘Growing your Own’ or you just love gardening – here are a few products to choose from!

When you have spent half of the year growing and watering your spuds, its important to have a place to put them and I love these sacks, they are simple and help to keep your produce fresh!
