    Thank you so much for your kind remarks.
    I grow heaps of veggies.
    Umm..

    Runner beans, peas, snow peas, cucumbers, tomatoes, melons, pumpkins, broad beans, zuchini, potatoes, lettuce, cabbages, silverbeet, beetroot, carrot, leek, turnip & spring onion.

    The broccoli and kohl rabi & turnip were all attacked by a small moth this year, as the cabbage white butterfly couldn't get through the bird netting to lay their eggs. Not sure what the small moth is, but it sure did well!

    Millions of caterpillars with a type of spiderweb, they drop down when startled, then climb back into the plant when it's safe.

    I also have beds for Asparagus, rhubarb, & blueberries. In pots I've got raspberry, loganberry & boysenberry.

    I'm starting off small!

    What lovely colour you've got. I'm sooo envious. :D I envy you the chickens too, I must admit. And the potatoes, not to mention the peas... And to think there's nearly six months ahead of me where I won't even get to think about planting veggies.
