Vege Patch In The Making......


I have been itching to get a vege patch in., never been serious about veges before but I'm ready!!! We have recently moved to a new house out of town with a just over half acre section. We decided that we want most of the trees and plants to be productive, and evergreen if possible. We have planted, 2 avocado's, 2 feijoa's, strawberries, passionfruit, dwarf cherry, tamarillo. I have been having a go at growing my prospective veges from seed and have had an almost 100% germination rate (thanks Kings Seeds). My Purple Tee Pee beans are doing a Jack in the beanstalk thing in the formal lounge (new that extra room would come in useful) so they need to be planted outside, also have jack-be-little pumpkin, gherkins, capsicum, supersteak tomato, but I bought that one.
First we actually have to dig the garden and fork in the compost. My dear husband is home tomorrow so hopefully he will do it if I'm still not feeling to good (home with the flu today). Then we can get these babies in the ground........so until tomorrow there's pics of the strawberries and the proposed garden.
