Harvesting

Harvesting has begun 

Not like the old days. Where I’d rip everything out and process it all in one day 

The first ones to go are these small wicking beds 

You can it’s been a while since I’ve spent any TLC on them 

I only got around finishing these four. It was hard and hot work pulling plants, and weeds out. As wicking beds have the water in the bottom, the plants grow deep roots 



I’ve filled the wheelbarrow full of the plants and weeds. They will taken out back. The chickens will go through it and eat whatever is left and then it will turn into compost. 



After cleaning and sorting I was left with this 

I also pulled out some leaks and harvested zucchini from the large bed. 

After all the washing chopping and pulling out of stalks. I have all this. 

It’s in the freezer waiting to be used over winter 

I do a lot of slow cooker meals. All i have to do is open packets take out what I need and put it in the slow cooker. Along with meat off the paddock 

Easy peasy 

Now back to knitting. I’m exhausted
