Thank You, Happy New Year and Highlights of December in the Garden
Friday, January 1, 2010 at 05:00PM Happy New Year! With the doors of 2009 having come to a close, we just wanted to say thank you so much for your support and enthusiasm for our little ‘adventure in urban sustainability’ over the past year. It means so much to us that so many people enjoy visiting our site, and it’s been wonderful ‘meeting’ many of you through your comments and emails, hearing your stories and visiting your blogs. Thank you for inspiring us, and sharing your ideas and passion for simple green living! Best wishes to you for a wonderful 2010 on your own ‘adventure in sustainability.’ May it be a year abundant in much happiness, good health and homegrown food!
This year amongst the many things we’re looking forward to are more of our fruit trees starting to bear fruit (our garden still so young being just over 2 years old), making a bee hive, getting a couple ducks – and having our green wedding right here in the veggie patch!
Some of our favourite memories of the last month of summer 2009 in our garden were...
Creating meals from our abundant harvests of corn, cucumber, zucchini, chilli, onion, carrot, tomatoes and more - we haven’t bought any fresh vegetables in about four months!
Watching dragonflies magically emerging from their shells on the stems of water chestnuts in our garden pond...
Seeing our garden and silkie chooks featured in a copy of the Wellbeing Organic Garden magazine...
Tasting our first grapes that dangle tantalisingly from the front deck...
Cheering on the pumpkin vine climbing over the chicken house...
