Vegie patch in Spring

Kale

Last weekend we pulled the Little Sweety Tomatoes out of the vegie garden and seriously pruned back all the herbs. We then added lots of compost and cow manure to prepare it for planting. So this weekend we planted lots of green Asian vegies, tomatoes, cucumbers, kale (pictured above) and brocolli in with the eggplant which is still in the garden from last year and has started to fruit already.


All the vegies have a sugarcane mulch blanket on to keep them warm and hydrated. The excitement of spring and watching our food grow has begun.
