    This is our Hay day

    April 17, 2021 in France ⋅ ⛅ 10 °C

    So today we said we were at the disposal of le Merle roux, two able bodied 30-somethings, ready to do some work! Little did we know what it would take to move 5 x 300kg of hay bales from A to B...that’s about half a Frank-campervan, we’re talking 1.5 ton, that’s a lot of hay (already starting to decompose...so prob heavier in reality?!)

    What ensued as a result of tired arms, loads of fresh air and a solid work routine was some ideas for our permaculture rap....which rolled off the tongue...like hay from each wheelbarrow load...

    Three tons are too heavy
    So take it slow and steady
    Because the hays okay
    With some days delay
    Peel and shove it,
    whether dry or in decay
    Feel and love it,
    just make sure its done before May.
