Our vege garden




Last year we planted a vege garden and we are reaping the rewards!!

So far we have had brocolli, beans, cauliflower, potatoes, tomatoes, silverbeet, comfrey, mint, spring onions, radishes....... haven't had to buy veges from the fruit shop in a very long time!
So far, I have made tomato chutney, lasagne using the silverbeet and potatoes, and I am finding things to do with the excess veges before they go bad! I feel like a Domestic Goddess ;)

We have also planted fruit trees - lemon, mandarin, feijoa, tamarillo and passionfruit, but I guess they take a long time to become established as we haven't had anything from them as yet.

If only bananas grew in the ground :)
