The Native Iowan

Under the catagory “Ol fart fun n games”…

Gardening down under has taken us some time to sort out. We  now have good veggies year round. Autumn is the best time to plant. Winter gardens do best. Too many pests in the summer. But our summer garden has been great. Still have melons coming on. Always have tomatoes n egg plant. Bell peppers n chilies. Loads of different pumpkins. Year round cassava, kumara of a couple varieties, some taro, a couple varieties of slippery cabbage.

1. Today was a good day to pull cassava, move a few things and generally clean up in prep for a February planting. Tend the fruit trees, spread “fertiliser”.

I even have the prerequisite silly Ol fart hat!

Life is good…
