John establishing garden beds around the south and front of the front driveway. The sleepers are partially in place, and we were filling this area in with horse manure from the local race track, to create a compost |
Apart from the abundant crop, we established a new bed behind the garden shed and made use of the council land-driveway area at the back of the property. Surplus stock included beans and corn to freeze. Tomato's as frozen chill con carne sauce, tomato and zucchini sauce, and bottled chill-tomato chutney, stored in the cool room |
