Garlic for Christmas

Posted on May 29, 2019 by joeyrochford

Our garlic is growing up nicely and will be ready for sale in December 2019.

We will be taking orders from September.

Until then, stay warm! 🙂

This week’s winner weed is Arctotheca calendula or Capeweed or Cape Dandelion. It has a determined little bastard of a taproot but no stem. This means it lies flat across the ground and effectively outmaneuvers any other competition. Capeweed can survive periods of drought better than most. It proliferates over Autumn and Winter, flowers in late Winter/Spring and then as a little bonus gift, dies off in the hot months, leaving you with bare soil that dries and bakes in the scorching Central Victoria Summer. So an all-year round winner, really. #weeds #capeweed #arctothecacalendula #weedsonorganicfarms #butimnotbitter

Its National Tree Day! Have ye planted yours yet? Here’s a black hole filled with chook poo, compost, soil, mulch and hopefully a future tree. All’s I had to do was pick an acorn off the ground at the local park. #treeswillsaveus #oaktree #planttrees #localtrees #growyourfarmwithtrees
