What type of chooks did you get this time?
Hope they're going well!
Yum, tomatoes! Can you grow those all year round? I have some plants I kept inside over winter and they stopped fruiting ages ago, but recently they have had stacks of flowers (but too cold to set fruit). Today I found one has a fruit on it! heheh Yay! (NB it's way too early to plant out new plants outside here!)
Yum what a selection of fruit you will have!!!!
I didn't plant ANY new fruit trees this winter..... I got too disheartened at doing all the work of digging and preparing holes and planting them and having them savaged by rabbits/wallabies/possums/unknown marauders. So this year I'm trying to consolidate what we do have. We've extended the fence up to 1800mm high and we THINK we've shored up the bottom of it too. Also most trees have individual 900mm wire around them, and those that don't have small trunk guards against rabbit attack. Phew!
I'm going to plant peas very soon.
