Tuesday.

Wow the wind would blow a dog off a chain here today. The sun is shining and the temp is 31c. Already the smell of bush fires is being carried on this wind. :(

The veggies will struggle this summer I'd say, if this is what its like now at the beginning of spring. The tomatoes didn't do so well last year but we have moved beds and put in extra plants  in the hope that we will get plenty this season. I like to have extras to make pasta sauce etc.

So far we have put it tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, carrots, onions and spring onions, spinach, zucchini, more basil, peppermint, parsnips, beetroot and chilli.The strawberries are doing fine as are the fruit trees, with the blueberries starting to appear. The herbs are loving the sun and the grape vines are sprouting again. There is still more to plant but it can wait another week.
