About

Welcome to all fellow travelers, journeying through life on this precious planet – which has been entrusted to our care…

“Garden to Kitchen” with Suz, is the continuing story of our own journey to practice sustainable, self-sufficient living on 1/4 acre in the south of NZ. My husband and I, share our property, (which we have affectionately named ‘GardEden’), with 2 SPCA rescue cats and a huge collection of predator insects that patrol our totally organic gardens. The main reason we embarked on this lifestyle, was to live a healthier life, while impacting less on the environment. Despite a few major near disasters, including an unseasonal storm destroying our brand new greenhouse  (just 2 weeks after spending a whole week putting it up), within only 9 months of moving to our property and working on helping it provide for us, we have been almost 100% successful with our gardens. We are now at the point that we hardly ever buy something, unless we can’t grow it, make it, borrow it or recycle it!

I will be blogging ongoing, about trialling new crops, self-sufficient/lifestyle successes and failures, the gardens, our harvests, new recipes, fermenting, natural health & herbal remedies, among other things! I am passionate about living a holistic life, gardening, cooking, fermenting, herbs, wholefoods, veganism, reading, writing, creating and living a thankful life to the full – every day, while walking in The Way. I am thrilled that you have found me, and thank you for following me – if that is what you choose to do. Be blessed in all you do, Suz
