One of the unexpected perks of drought and a shockingly early harvest? The lads have finally had time to tackle the jobs Christopher has been putting off for 40+ years… 🫪

High up on the list: clearing out the wheat barn. 📋

Years of hand-me-down fridges that ‘might’ work, washing machines that ‘just need a little something’ and bits of wood that ‘may’ come in useful. There’s been frustration, laughter, head-scratching, some rogue items uncovered and a LOT of dust 🧼🧹

It’s pretty satisfying to finally see the floor again!!

Christopher couldn’t help expressing himself as soon as we had a few drops of rain last night - 1mm to be precise! 🌧️☂️

After over two months of drought, we may be getting a little ahead of ourselves… and we need a bucketful… we live in hope! 🥳

Figs, glorious figs 🤎💜💚

We’ve been so lucky with our fig haul this summer, despite the sheer lack of rain!

Swipe to see Juliet’s excellent choreography, thoughtfully designed to communicate one very important message: we really, really love eating figs 🤣

The earliest start we can remember to a somewhat droughty, thin, wheat harvest. 🥵🌾

Hot hot hot …. But the wheat is all gathered in now and time for other tasks before we start on even thinner barley. 👨🏻‍🌾

Letters like these are always a highlight 💌

A few weeks after hosting the lovely Charlotte House Prep School for their annual residential, these landed on our doorstep. Some of our favourite snippets…

🌍 “As a fellow animal lover I will share my plans to stop climate change.”

🦋 “My favourite thing was definitely the moth identifying, because I learnt so many kind of species of moths and overcame my fear.”

🍽️ “I also really liked sitting down for dinner with the candles lit, and the long table with a big chairs at both ends.“

🐘 “My favourite moth was the elephant hawk as it was so colourful and pretty and it was a pleasure releasing it back into the wild.”

Thanks to all the children (and staff!) for bringing such enthusiasm and we’re already looking forward to welcoming you next year 🤗

Have you ever seen something so cute? 🥹😭

Dotty & Doris have found an ingenious way to stay cool in this hot weather… curled up in their water trough! 🥵

A rather splendid line-up earlier in the week 🚘🤯

The eastern region’s Porsche Club PCGB R12 Norfolk & Suffolk rolled into Milden for a gathering of beautifully polished cars, a rather fitting posh Porsche Ploughman’s lunch in the Tudor Barn and a historic house tour afterwards. 😋

Handsome Foxy Loxy was out and about enjoying Easter Weekend 🦊

Henny Pennies are staying vigilant as he will have some hungry fox cubs … the den is rather close for comfort! 🐓

Frances Browne enjoyed his company with her camera! Thank you 📸
