A year ago I couldn't have BEGUN to imagine the lengths I'd go to to feed my titchy urban garden:
wee, hair and tiny fluff-balls in the compost
comfrey ripped out of nearby wall
nettles painfully gathered from local park
pockets full of seaweed from beach
coffee grounds begged from sandwich shop...
honestly, it's a mania. now I'm about to spend a few days on a stone-carving beginners' course, yep, long story, and have suddenly wondered...is there summat in them there piles of limestone dust?
i.e. if I gather it up (ignoring the mockery of my fellow students) can I use it to lime my soil, or will it be the wrong kind of lime? anyone? anyone?
and...any ideas for something garden-related I could carve?
