Gardening buddies and grower extraordinaires
Since moving back from Canberra we've managed to stay in touch with some of our great buddies there.
I got an email from my mate Helen to say they'd set up a new website for their one acre farm, Wynlen House, located in Braidwood. If you are ever that way do stop in; Braidwood is a beautiful part of the world, and Helen and Bron are usually found at the local market on a weekend flogging their amazing organic produce!
I've popped their link under the Events area on my blog here.
This is what you can achieve when you have a passion for dirt :o) . . . Happy gardening!

Zucchini problem
Our zucchini is suffering (poor thing!). Not sure why, so seeking ideas. It's watered every day but was a bit neglected as a seedling.
What could be drying out the small fruit? They get to about 1 inch long then shrivel up!
Help!

A few of our favourite things
We harvested the last of our vegetables from our no-dig garden today - much cooler day and conducive to gardening - we've missed it!
You can see our budding gardener, Alfie, is already quite confident and may well be a vegetable connoisseur by the looks.
Beetroot and carrots turned out well in the end, although some are a little bitter, probably from being in the ground for a while and perhaps the irregular watering?
Anyway, looks like we'll be feasting tonight!
I just love the harvest it's such fun and even better is the anticipation of what's new - we're already thinking about what to sow next!
Oh, and we beat the rats in the end by 3 corn cobs! 3 to the rats and 6 to us in the end! :o)
