2010 new year

the veggie patch is coming along well

we are now producing small amounts of peas broad beans brocoli zuccinis silverbeet squash and so far a single cherry tomato. We have for the first time in about 10 years have a few apples on the trees and possibly some lemons if they continue to grow.
I think i may have some corn growing
It has cost a small fortune to set up the latest cost being the mulch to help protect against the hight 30d days
The rabbits seem to have decided to keep away from the patch - helped by a hastily put up fence and the kangaroos have had a stern warning about keeping off the veg!




the start of the veggie patch
ian is putting in holes for the fence posts - we do like bylsma hire
early days of the beans and peas

santa dropped in to protect the corn which is now somewhat larger - about 3 weeks later

I stopped gardening temporarily on NYE to enjoy the rain in Daylesford with ian and simon
