Garden Update

Our veggie garden did not get off to a great start. Shortly after we planted we went away for two weeks, leaving our little seedlings water-less. When we got back the cabbages got severely frosted, the birds ate the spinach leaves and Bailey, Lucy and James got hold of the rest.

Undeterred, I continued to water in hope, and it seems they have made an amazing recovery! So much so that we added more mulch, extended the garden and have planted beetroot, lettuce and some other unidentified seedlings (it's a long story...) I also set up a 'scarecrow' of sorts as well as a special table of bird seed away from the veggies (Michael is not convinced, but I live in hope!)
