Lists of things to do

While we were away, I did do a lot of thinking about what needs to be done to get the garden ready for the spring.  I have a fixed vision in my head of how I want it to be and it is shaping up nicely.  But things were also happening behind the scenes.  I’m not all that great with my spatial awareness as shown … Continue reading Lists of things to do

Moving Mountains

I have a mountain of earth to move. It equates to 6 truckloads of good quality swamp-like soil from ‘up near Froggies’ near where we used to live.  I feel confident it will be a fabulous growing medium for my new garden and it appears to be weed free.  It has been hanging about for a couple of months now and nothing nasty has reared … Continue reading Moving Mountains

Progress

I feel like I have bitten off more than I can chew, and my eyes are bigger than my stomach but I really want what I want, so I will work hard to get there.   My garden is huge.  Last time it was built up slowly over 10 years.  This time I want it all done in 10 weeks.  Actually I have longer than that … Continue reading Progress

This week was the first week in a long time where the garden could take priority, and aside from some dodgy weather and an accidental nana nap, I'm quite pleased with what I achieved.I'm especially proud of my chicken proofing. You can read all about it here : o) ...

How to grow a vegie garden in a small spaceIn my new garden layout, I found myself with a spare 1m x 4m garden bed. Coincidentally the good people at Yates NZ gave me a full set of their Small Gardens range of seeds so I decided to pretend that spare bed was my only garden bed and am going to grow all of the exciting Small Gardens seeds in this bed, with no cheating overflow going elsewhere.Now I just need to eat carrot and celeriac like they are going out of fashion and prepare the soil, make a plan and sow seeds. We are past the first day of spring, but there is still plenty of time to start a vegie garden from seed.I’ll keep you posted. : o)#Sponsored #Gifted #Small Gardens ...

The weeds are creeping into my recently pristine garden beds. It always surprises me how quickly they can take over when you turn your back. But it is a sign that things are warming up... so there's that. Just as well I don't mind a bit of weeding - it is mindful and calming to slowly and carefully work across the garden watching the clean soil appear in front of you. Soon enough there will be plants and mulch and it will be a completely different space! : o) ...
