Plantin' Season !

We just started our very first vegie patch !



Well we have some potatos planted that are ready to harvest - but this is the first time we have actullay planted quite a few seedlings! ...the potato patch was a result of some bad potatos that got thrown into the earth ! The kids helped loosen up the soil which was pretty hard! We then threw dynamic lifter all over the soil - explaining that these are the vitamins for the vegies to grow. then we dug our fuurows and ech child picked which 'vegie' they wanted to plant and look after ... then we sprinkled with fertiliser and watered them in !



Here is what we ended up with :
CUCUMBERS ...
CORN.....

ZUCHINI.....
CAPSICUM.....

WATERMELON ......

SNOW PEAS and TOMATO .....
