Vegetable garden

Baby basil

Just LOOK at these babies. Aren’t they so sweet peeking their fresh little heads out of the soil?

We’ve started a huuuge veggie garden and everything is going great guns at the moment.

We planted all sorts of tomatoes (after great success the last 2 years), aubergines (my best), gem squash, butternut and our virgin crops of broccoli, beans, fennel, spinach, watermelon (I promise Potjie, these ARE watermelon ;-) and mielies!

How darn cool is that? I have to admit they are quite far along now so will post next with their current progress, I just had to show off the little-lies.

I got husband a chicken PALACE for his birthday and I must say I’m finding it hard to find some point of lay chickens to come and live with us! If anyone has any contacts, please do let me know – I was hoping to give them to husband for Christmas but alas I have not found any yet.

How urban farmer-ey are we?
