About Us.
Byther Farm is a small organic homestead, designed and managed using permaculture practices. We aim for self-sufficiency in fruit and vegetables for increased self reliance and better resilience to the modern world. I recognise that we are unlikely to be truly self sufficient, but do the best we can. I share our home with my loving partner, Mr J and our cat, Monty.
We are a fifty-something couple who live on a smallholding in Monmouthshire, Wales. We are going green and creating a gentler, cleaner and more healthy life for our family.
There is a large organic kitchen garden with no dig gardening raised beds and young food forest in which to grown our fruit and vegetables.
We keep chickens and Aylesbury ducks.

Hi Liz, love the contrast between ornamental and edibles, given me an idea for a part of my garden. Love the corner timber seat idea on the raised bed, im going to nick that idea too. Beautiful robin.
Hey Liz, CONGRATULATIONS ON THE NEW BOOK !! Can’t wait to read it.
Hi Liz, I need help. This is my first time growing Japanese eggplant. But I noticed within the same plant the normal purple eggplant fruits are growing, so is this yellow looking one too. Any idea why? Thanks in advance.
Good. Thank you
Yes! I love this principle of combining edible perennials and annuals / veggies and flowers in an ornamental garden – I am still looking for good books that give practical examples for this – any good tips for that? Thank you for the inspiration!
I adore orache. Such a beautiful plant. I‘ve been hesitant though because all my allotment neighbors consider it a noxious weed and where I‘d put it is along the outside of my plot. I‘m afraid that someone might try to spray herbicide to get rid of it (not that herbicides are allowed, but unfortunately that doesn‘t bother most people here…)
Just beautiful Liz! Thank You!!
You have an edible paradise that would make the angles sing… love how you talked about sacrificial plants that attract moths that in turn support a whole lot of other birds and animals. Your seat idea is so practical. The allium flowers make the polytunnel plastic look pretty.
WOO HOO! I’m so excited to announce that you can now pre-order my first book, Grounded, at a special pre-publication price. All pre-ordered books will be signed. Publication due February 2021. https://bytherfarm.com/books
I’m just about to try and convert part of cottage garden to a mix with flowers and veg. Thank you for the great ideas. I’ve really grown to appreciate the beauty in vegetables too, they can have some stunning architecture, texture, colours. Big learning curve this year, helped massively by channels like yours
Great video liz
Edimental gardening
Wonderful Liz
Fabulous as always! Thx Liz♥️
Lovely! I’m taking the plunge and going into market gardening in the spring. Going to need to get creative with packing it all in!!
New subscriber! Loved the video..very inspiring and informative.
So good Liz. The beauty of vegetables is so underrated. Great information once again. 😉
Those figworts grow on you, I spot them on my walks and I always stop and look at the flowers.
I’m very excited for your book, I couldn’t resist, so order served! Well done!
Great concept!
Nice video
lovely garden. , i just had my onion harvest last month, but in garden centers they have onion set to grow in winter , i m suprised , do we realy grow onions in winter in sep , n when r they harvested r they grow for big bulbs or for seeds next yr or spring onions .
Good name for your gardening book! Grounded! Love it. X
Everything is so so gorgeous!
Although my new place is out in the country and likely my husband and I will be the only ones to see it, I plan to interplant flowers in all my beds. I won’t distinguish between the two, since flowers are crucial for the pollinators AND for my pleasure.
Another inspiring video, showing how a vegetable garden can be a lot more than just functional and focused on production. Some wonderful suggestions I will definitely try out.
Thank you Liz x
Can I please ask what your average temperatures summer and winter are? Where we live is probably the opposite of your seasons!
Absolutely lovely!
Your garden is beautiful, Liz! Thank you for sharing with us and for teaching along the way. I always learn something from your videos.
Hi Liz – yet another interesting vid. Thanks. An ex-trampoline pole? – I never thought of you bouncing up and down on such but – you never know these things! Love your decorative and practical mix. Your idea for corner ‘perches’ to sit and linger is a good ‘un. I love and respect your attention to pollinators. When we arrived at our new home, pollinators and birds were more or less absent. Not so now. It matters’ doesn’t it? You’ve given me more than a few ideas. Thanks again. Every good wish as always – Paul
You are just so lucky not to have to worry about deadly snakes. No way I would be game to have a garden that dense.
Wow manny plants. Injoyable. Rooming around your plants . Thanks may God bless you.
Sometimes your ornamental flowers are secret edibles. It’s not carnation instant breakfast for nothing.
You sure have a lot of beautiful flowers in your garden Liz and I find your videos are very education for this old guy…
lovely mix of plants well done liz
thank you for another excellent video
your plants look so healthy liz
