Story
Froghollow is 30 years in the making and filled with quirky op shop/rubbish pile creations. After 30 years of no chemicals or artificial fertilizers and using permaculture principles the garden is alive with frogs, insects, butterflies, bees, wasps, blue tongue lizards and a resident possum. Bee motels, a possum box and ponds provide lots of habitat. Native bee hives are thriving. The vegetable garden was originally on the ground but as we have aged we have made raised garden beds that we can sit on the edge of to garden and raised recycled bathtub wicking beds to save our knees! Worm farms and compost bays take care of our waste and provide lots of compost. There is a large run for our heritage chickens with some fruit trees in it as well. A small aquaponics system with pet goldfish grows some lovely herbs. A recent addition is the native edible food garden.
