A highlight of this job - that I'm lucky to witness pretty much every day - is seeing kids develop a love of gardening, growing, hard physical labour, and getting their hands dirty!

We're definitely saving seeds from this 6kg+ beautiful J*p Pumpkin. The beauty of continuing a strong line ensures you grow fruit and veg proven to thrive in our particular climate here in Margaret River. We'll have seedlings available for sale from the Honesty Stall in October. What a winner!

Although Jim's now in year 6 and not officially part of the kitchen garden program anymore, he still drops in to lend a hand. Whether it's checking on the chickens, potting up stray tomato seedlings, or fixing a particularly tricky retic breakage as he did today, he's a very handy kid to have around. I can honestly say I'm not quite sure how I'm going to cope when he moves on to the high school next year. 🥺

I remember seeing Cineraria in someone's garden when I was just out of uni in the mid nineties. I still remember being blown away by how vivid their colours were in the middle of winter. Hence why I still plant them all these years later. An added bonus is their pollinator pulling power! 🐝

Forty three oranges were harvested from this dwarf Wahington Naval today. I think we only planted it two or three years ago. What a winner 🍊.

If only I could remember what these seeds actually were. 🤔 Whatever they are, one surely must applaud their resilience. ...

If only I could remember what these seeds actually were. 🤔 Whatever they are, one surely must applaud their resilience. That's a 2mm wide crack, at best! 🤣
