Spring Cleaning

Not a lot of time spent in the garden this weekend other than Mowing the lawn... I spent Saturday cleaning out under the house so I can organise my tools/work area properly & doing a trip to the dump...
Sunday we collected a small garden shed that was given to us by B?s parents that they no longer need... It was an easy job to break it down but the fun will be deciphering my runes to reassemble it..... We will be using a borrowed cement mixer to lay a small slab for it to sit on & will be giving it a paint job so it can blend into the garden a bit better...
It will be big enough for the lawn mower & the hand tools as well as the Chook food...


A little door for feeding scraps directly into the Chook pen was installed... This will please our youngest as she found it rather frustrating to force food through the fence & wants to be able to put the scraps in all by herself...

Had a nice little smile moment today...
I was pruning the lateral shots from the Tomatoes & noticed that the little Mutant Zuccumpkin looks to have taken !!!!! **Does happy Dance **
Shall be interesting to see how big it gets as the Butternut is covered with Powdery Mildew despite the watered down Milk treatment it has been getting...

This weeks harvest....
Beetroot leaves,  lettuce,  Zucchini, Beans, Kale, Silverbeet,  & Last of the Honey Snap Peas/Cabbage...
We also got  3 eggs a day.....
Rain....
We have had a very wet week, 105mm,  & all the dams are overflowing... This is a good thing, For now.... I have heard that we can expect a fairly wet summer which could lead to the possibility of major flooding.... Hope it doesnt happen but will be prepared anyway...

Have a Great One all....
