After a couple of years of hard work the Pla d'Artigue is looking very pasture-like, we've even got the first wild flowers returning (betany and crocii). When we started it was neck high in brambles, ferns and thickets of blackthorn and sloe.
Patrick and Nanou own a couple of parcels of land behind where I took this photo from. Nanou passed over it with Christian's new broyeur and we've spent the last week strimming, burning and fencing it.

- note the wall of brambles behind them!
