Are there any backyard veggie gardeners here?

[Jamberie]

Thank you for the inspiration to get back into the garden everyone!

I think I have come to the realisation that our veggie patch will be best suited to summer crops (combination of laziness and planing that will grow in our climate)!

Today I spent 30 minutes weeding in preparation for the tomatoes that my dad put in his greenhouse yesterday. Our last frost won't be for at least another month, but that gives us time to prepare the soil

Jam,  like you , our garden is best suited to Summer.  We always say latest frosts are on Melb cup day. 
Spent another day weeding.   Tomorrow should see most of it done.

We are building another garden. Need to get more soil in. Went to a seed savers meeting on the weekend which was interesting. So much to learn with gardening and I am a novice! These are our kids up at our community garden plot on the weekend.

I would also love to get some chooks. So need to fix up the fence and enquire on where to buy then from.

Dad used to grow those Chookie. He used to give them to DD telling her he grew mini cauliflowers just for her.  I'd love to buy them but you don't see them in the shops.

Cookie,  how sweet.   Think you have to grow your own.  These have been growing all winter.  Not looking the best as they have had snow and frosts.  I should have clipped the leaves together over the flower.
