Garden 2 (above)
I love vegetable gardening. The kids and I spend many hours of pleasure planting, fertilizing, mulching and harvesting - yeah!
It is such a empowering feeling of producing our own food.
Some of our all time favourites - tomatoes, lettuce, capsicum, chillis, eggplant - yum, beans, corn - dd favourite, various herbs and this year we even got some strawberries. I tried a potato cage but wasn't very successful - remember to use certified potatoes next time!
As a family, we go out at meal times and harvest - what a buzz!
A very proud mother moment - ds harvesting his own tomato to put on his homemade bread for lunch - his choice and his favourite - hooray!
My objective for this year was to learn to seed save. I had success with corn, eggplant so far!
