It’s our 10 year anniversary at Sophie’s Patch. On the 30th August 2011 we had the opportunity to buy our beautiful 1847 stone cottage on three acres of cow paddock, after having rented here for 4 years. On the 11th September 2011 we had our house warming and orchard planting. With one week’s notice, we invited a hundred friends and fifty were able to make it. It was BYO food and bottle to share, and BYO spade and gloves……………… and in just 1.5 hours we planted 90 fruit trees. We have found some rough and raw footage of this house warming / orchard planting. It’s rough and raw footage and includes kid chaos (as my tribe of five were then aged between 4 and 10), bad hair styles, many OH&S nightmares………….. but lots of fun. The video runs for just over 15 minutes so grab a cuppa ………………… and see how things have grown.
