A lot of undue credit given to miracles this weekend . Here’s a shout out to that humble high achiever - Science. Garlic shoots have popped up; Pea shoots are doing their nitrogen-adding; Micro-organisms are coming back to the damp soil, thanks to the extra layers of water-saving mulch. #garlic #organicgarlic #garlicfarm #victoriangrown
Before and after three inches of rain. Garlic now mulched and top dressed with the good stuff. Hashtag I used to get so bored listening to adults talk about the weather. ☔️ #organicgarlic #garlic #victoriangarlic #victoriangrown #locallygrown #luckyfarmer
Arthropodium strictum (Chocolate Lily) Bulbine bulbosa, Microseris lanceolata (Yam Daisy). All indigenous plants, with tubers you can roast and feast on. Thanks to the propagating wizard Frances Cincotta at @newsteadnatives . Growing a few to see what happens. #indigenousplants
Nitrogen fixing pea straw mulch on top, which also keeps moisture in. Wheat straw mulch along sides to blanket the weeds out. Additional 2 inches of rain after 6 months of dry - just a little miracle of science. ☔️ Thanks nature. #luckyfarmer #garlic #organicgarlic #garlicfarmer
A little late planting and magic team effort with the very able hands of @secret_picnic to get these little pearls into the ground. Thanks to @madelaineseggs and @herm.sen for the organic garlic seed stock. A fine start 🌱 #organicgarlic #garlicfarming #victoriangarlic #locallygrown
The best conditions for vibrant autumn colours are cold nights and dry weather. So although we’re facing a catastrophic future from climate change, at least we can simultaneously look forward to some nice autumn leaves. #eatgarlic #votegreens
