Look Mum we are growing potatoes!
Amazing what you can do with an old tire, some potatoes and a bit of chicken poo….
I’m very proud of this photo and hope we will be eating home grown potatoes this Christmas or possibly before. Never thought I could get so much pleasure out of the spud.
We also have lettuce which our family of rabbits are really enjoying, lots of herbs which we are already eating, tomatoes, capsicum, aubergine that are still a long way off. We have some seedlings of pimento sitting on the office window ledge – currently with just 5 tiny leaves popping through the soil.
We also have zucchini, pumpkins and watermelon. I’ll let you know how it all goes and who gets to sample our food first, other than the rabbits we are competing with the chickens, Tana of course and all the wonderful wild birds in the back yard let alone the small predators and then of course the possums over the fence. Competition on….
Love Mary
ps...this is the last of the blossom
