The Country Cottage Gardener aka Chris Wakelin aka The Rustic Badger.
Take your pick, he goes by many a name but that's because he's a multi talented guy.

Chris is a professional Gardener and landscaper not only has he got a green thumb but some might say green blood runs through his veins..... Oh and did i mention he's also a carpenter and builds Hand made furniture & home decor from Upcycling old whisky barrels.

Chris is a great guy and an inspitation to any gardener or human for that matter.

Can you imagine being a gardener drafted into a war? You’ve spent each working day looking at nature, admiring her beauty, nurturing life, sowing and growing plants, then suddenly you’re shipped off to a living hell of death and destruction and asked to kill.

That is the begining paragraph of this news article posted back in 2018.. written by Matt Peskett

Ive become vasinated with war stories recently and after some digging I have come across some gardener war stories.

I read the article here for you..

Have a great week
