I'm super proud of my new book Growing Vegetables - A simple guide for New Zealand gardeners. It's aim is to provide gardeners with a good solid foundation of knowledge, supporting them through the first growing season with weekly guidance and timely advice. Its packed with tips and techniques, planning charts, and places to record notes and is a handy resource of trusted, reliable gardening information, quick to access and easy to understand. Where to find a copy: This should be available at all good bookstores throughout New Zealand. If your local bookstore doesn’t have it, ask them to get it in for you. : o) ...

I knew I wouldn't have enough spare time to fix the chicken fence in one go, so it has become a case of 'whack-a-mole' staying one step behind the chickens as they find gaps in the temporarily patched fence to rampage through the garden. Today I saw them sneaking out a corner of dissolved chicken wire so I fixed that bit and it was so satisfying! : o) ...
