We made toys for our hens at the Home Ed club yesterday. The poor birds have been shut in for a long time now due to bird flu so we try to find ways to entertain & occupy them. We also went foraging for fresh plants. Dandelion & dock were big favourites #HomeEd #Hens #Nature

Spent the day planting hedges. It will be a very long wait now until we have a stock proof hedge

@NorthernRootsOL @REELCIC @GhazaliTrust @RealHillTop @Northern_LilyGM @BoathousePure @OldhamCouncil sounds great, I'm looking forward to seeing your plans develop and being able to bring my two girls along when they're a bit older to enjoy it all as well

@SmallholdersUK @MiniSanctuary Thanks, yes time is such an issue! I also want to learn to coppice & make the huge range of products from coppicing diff trees but at some point I think I need to acknowledge it's better to outsource some elements &, like you say, support someone else at the same time

[ValleyFarmOWL @ValleyFarmOWL]

Why OWL?
OWL stands for Outdoor Wellbeing and Learning, reflecting our use of the outdoors - nature and animals - to support people to develop their health and wellbeing skills and enjoy spending time in nature

Name change coming soon
We're going to be changing our name to

Valley Farm OWL CIC

so keep an eye out for our change of logo & name

[ValleyFarmOWL @ValleyFarmOWL]

Why?
We recently moved to our first venue of our own, which already has the name Valley Farm. We felt it was confusing to have two Farm names associated with us.

@jdibon oh it somehow hadn't occurred to me that I might get multiple causes at once. I get one type that I think is due to poor posture or shoulder/neck strain, & another that is possibly CSF leak or POTSy. Could easily get both at once tho if doing upright hard work on a hot day

[ValleyFarmOWL @ValleyFarmOWL]

@lizzieharvie I have appreciated finding and following you here. I use twitter a lot to inform me about experiences that I otherwise wouldn't know about. I have friends who have fostered and others who have adopted so I feel I need to hear from the adoptees too. Thank you for sharing

@LoveInYourTummy Perhaps there's some useful research in the horse or livestock farming world? (2/2)

[ValleyFarmOWL @ValleyFarmOWL]

@LoveInYourTummy Funnily enough, I started taking magnesium because it's was recommended for my horse, who was very anxious + had other issues. In horses, a diet high in sugar is also known to increase the magnesium requirements. Livestock farmers pay attention to nutritional needs too (1/2)

The paper on the mechanisms underlying NeuroCOVID in Long-COVID and possible remedies has been completed and ready for submission tonight. Will keep my followers updated on this.

Mind-body dualism hurts everyone, but most especially patients. Honored to be included in this fab story by @Jamie_Ducharme demonstrating why psychologists need to be integrated in the ICU, acute care, rehab or as early as possible. https://t.co/pxK82czTEx #rehabpsych #LongCovid

It's a grey, wet day here but hot soup bubbling away over a campfire is always cheering.
