in my garden

I've been spending a lot of time in my little vegie/herb patch lately. It's kind of my respite from the world, when I'm out there it's just me and the greenery. 

A few weeks back I sowed some lettuce mix seeds into a take away container. 


Yesterday it was time to plant them out into pots and see which ones would survive.


It was also time to transfer the Mizuna that I had been growing soiless on my window sill into some soil. 


With a bit of love soon I'll have lots more tasty treats for my salad bowl.

Gardens are a lot like people and relationships, with a bit of love and some nuture they flourish. It's not a new thought or concept but it's good to be reminded.....

veggie patch

I have a little vegie garden, actually it's more of a veranda/container garden. Here's some of what I'm growing.
Micro Greens, Lettuce, Wheat Grass and Aristotle Basil

Celery, Basil, Perennial Coriander and Mizuna.

I also have lots of other things growing that I'll share with you soon. My little garden is grown organically and I love the idea of growing as much as I can so I know what's going into my food. At the moment it's mainly herbs and salad greens.

The picture of the micro greens (above) was taken a couple of weeks ago. I've been harvesting them and here's what they look like on the table.


Basil, Rocket, Purple Cabbage and Kale.

It was so worth the effort as they are super tasty! Yes I'll be growing more of these......
