The Accidental Smallholder began, well, by accident. I suppose I am “The Accidental Smallholder”, since it’s become my business, but there are many other people who have helped over the years, and continue to help.
The Accidental Smallholder website was established in 2003 as a web-log for our smallholding, with the aim of supporting and encouraging others interested in growing their own food and becoming more self sufficient generally. Since then, various articles have been added and in 2007, a forum was created to allow smallholders and like-minded folk to share knowledge, experience and comradeship.
