Fresh vegetables 
Today's blog was written by Evie.

It's been a few weeks since we have been able to have Gardening Club because of rain.  But rain is really good for the garden so when we got to the vegetable patches the plants were tall, healthy and enormous.







Feeding the vegetables
We weeded and fed the vegetable patch with compost tea.   We checked on all the different vegetables and herbs growing there - carrots, spring onions, potatoes, silver beet.  They are looking good.

After we watered, weeded and fed the vegetables we went over to the garden bed under Mrs Hahn's window.  There were lots of overgrown swan plants and weeds which we pulled out so that we can plant wild flowers there next time.  



 
The wild flowers will look great here and they will attract bees and help bees make honey.

  1. Bonjour from France!
    Great to see that you have been able to get out into the garden and that things have been growing so well. I am looking forward to seeing what you have been doing when we get home in 3 more weeks. Have the poppy seeds started to sprout yet?
    We are in Provence in the moment and it is very hot (32 degrees) but the gardens are still very lovely and there are fields and fields of lavender.
    Au revoir
