LandLove Magazine  |  July/August 2016
Summer is at its height right now and I’m sure many of you will be heading for the coast at some point over the coming weeks, either for a holiday or just a day trip at the weekend. In this issue we take a look at some of the exciting marine species that can be found around our coastline, such as delicate seahorses and magnificent Orcas (p.106). So don’t forget to take your binoculars when you head to the seaside, you might be surprised at what you could spot amongst the waves. And if you’re a fan of beachcombing, then I know you’ll love our feature about artist Shirley Vauvelle, who makes beautiful artworks from flotsam and jetsam(p.98). Talking of all things seaside, we take a closer look at the South Cornwall coast in this issue (p.114). As well as glorious coastal walks and beautiful secluded sandy coves, its sub-tropical climate means that it has a whole host of lush gardens to explore, such as The Lost Gardens of Heligan and The Eden Project. But not only that, it boasts a wealth of fantastic food producers and is home to a number of stunning historic castles. So for a spot of horticulture with a dash of culture and a dollop of clotted cream on the side, it’s certainly worth taking time to discover more about this abundant part of the South West. The kids are on school holidays at the moment, so we’ve got some great ideas to keep them occupied and get them back in touch with nature. Turn to page 110 for inspiration. If you have room in your garden, you could even try building a barefoot path over the summer break, kids will love it and it’s also a fun alternative to a reflexology fix for grown-ups too (p.94)! Finally, the fruit and veg plot is burgeoning at the moment, so check out our scrummy recipes on page 48 that make the most of the season’s freshest produce.
