A simpler, seasonal life from our little narrowboat home.

Our story

Jack & Gabby

We live and cook aboard a narrowboat, following the seasons at a slower pace. This is where we keep our recipes, growing notes, small experiments and the odd honest failure — and a little shop of things we make and gather along the way. [Placeholder introduction — replace with 70–120 words.]

Seasonal films

Seasonal films from life on the water

A short film from the towpath this month — kettle on, frost lifting, the first of the winter greens.

This Tiny Life

Honey from our own hives, beeswax candles poured in small batches, and the odd gift gathered slowly. A little store, kept small on purpose.

From the kitchen

Nettle & wild garlic soup

The first bright green of the year, foraged along the towpath and softened with potato and a little cream. Ready in the time it takes the fire to catch. [Placeholder — 40–60 words.]
