We've been busy laying the groundwork for veggie gardens around Melbourne, and now coming into spring we're praying for sunny days and rainy nights so we can get the work done. We'll try as best we can to document some of the work.
Here is one patch that we thought looked great nestled amongst the old garden plants.
In case you're getting bored with displays of veggie gardens, here are some links that make interesting reading. One is to an article re the Kitchen Garden program that Stephaine Alexander champions - teaching kids the processes involved in growing and then eating your own food. A great and much needed initiative considering our obesity crisis and also simply for the enjoyment of good/natural food. www.theage.com.au/news/epicure/sowing-the-seeds/2008/08/24/1219516263720.html
Another worth a look at is http://coolmelbourne.org
As it states, coolmelbourne is "the one-stop info-shop for all things environmental, inpirational, practical and sustainable".
