Update - Garden 2

Today, New Year's Day 2017, we checked the gardens as is our routine and found that the beans and corn we planted on 27 December 2016 had sprouted.

Meanwhile, the original garden (Garden 1) is still producing beans, basil, silver beet, squash, tomatoes, rocket, carrots and a few other items.

We have been getting a few rock melons, these are very sweet and we have been having them Spanish style, a slice of rock melon topped with a slice of the locally smoked ham as an entree.

We found a "before" photo of the area where garden 2 is now located, compare it with the recent photo.

The introduced exotic plants (rhododendron and morning glory), an obsolete above ground pool and several steel poles (to be recycled as fence posts) were removed.
