Welcome to The Skewen Gardener .
We are Russell & Pauline , We live in Skewen . Pauline has lived here all her life whilst Russell moved here from his native Wrexham in North Wales .
Both of us have a dream to grow our own food at home , Just like relatives of ours use to do in years gone by . With the prices of food continuously rising there is no better time than to start growing .
You can grow your own food on whatever scale suits you from small holdings to some containers and tubs on the window sill . Its your choice .
Even though we have grown things off an on over the years we are resetting the clock and starting again after several years of garden neglect . By no stretch of the imagination are either of us professionals ,We will do things wrong and make mistakes along the way . This is how we want to do things – We hope you enjoy our journey starting June 2023
