It's getting colder so we are preparing our garden for winter by harvesting the celery, spinach, radishes and lettuces and digging the soil so we can plant cabbages, broccoli, beans and potatoes.
We don't have to do much watering now but those pesky weeds are still growing so we have to weed every week.
We are looking forward to the potatoes growing to we can make some hot chips!

Worm Tea
Worm tea is amazing! It has heaps of nutrients that are good for your pot plants, vegetable garden and flower garden. All you need to do is add it to the soil.
You can buy fresh worm tea at the Office Reception. It is made in our worm farm and costs $3 a bottle.

Autumn harvesting
We have been harvesting the beans, lettuces, radishes and spinach to take home to eat.
When we come back in Term 2 we will be planting cabbages, carrots and broccoli.
We are also hoping to get some rain soon as they garden is very dry.
