=====The Hidden Permaculture Principle (& How To Use It)===== | |||

We use our very old, but still productive, Blenheim Orange apple tree to support bird feeders that my husband can watch from his upstairs WFH office. In summer my air plants (who live on an old quilt hoop) hang from it to get some sunshine & gentle rain. When our kids were growing up, it was the best climbing frame! Our neighbours' bees love the blossom, and the kiwi vine over the garage often scrambles into the top branches. There are sometimes hanging baskets of tumbling tomatoes & Indian mint hanging from the lower branches too. Our elderly cat loves to laze in the shade under it on hot days. The local jackdaw gang love to peck at damaged fruits when we're not looking. Not just an old apple tree, more of a community support system! | |||
