Bean Sprouts

Just before Christmas I happened to find Bean Sprouts, a fantastic blog authored by Melanie Rimmer in the UK. I’ve signed up for her daily feeds and every one has been interesting, informative and frequently very funny. For those of you who’ve resolved to be greener in 2008, I promise you’ll find lots of resources and ideas at this site.

“Five of us live in a very small ex-council house with a very small garden on the edge of farmland. We grow some of our food on an allotment a couple of miles away. We keep chickens and bees. We try to be 'green', whatever that means”

I found Bean Sprouts through A Roker Artist. Steph is an artist on her own creative journey, and was one of the earliest visitors to this blog. She also happens to be Melanie’s sister. They live in different parts of England, but somehow I managed to find both of them. What a small and wonderful world.
