In the Garden this Week
The organic home gardener here!
Lovely, lovely rain! Yes it is pouring outside and the wind is raging a gale! My organic beans were flat out due to the heavy rain this morning but they look happier this afternoon.
On Wednsday I managed to get out and harvest the garden crops and also today a huge pile of silver beet! This week – turnip (lovely and sweet), english spinach, beans, eggplant (two varieties), lettuce, baby carrots, beetroot, spring onion, leek. We had a nice roast dinner last night and all the vegetables we could we baked!
The apples are nearly ready to pick and if the wind does not kick them off today we will be eating them next week!
The organic strawberries are still going nicely though I suspect this colder weather will put an end to that!
