Around the Farm

 
We are blessed with a climate that allows for productivity throughout the winter. Things are different of course and gratefully not so hectic as the summer months. Here's a little taste of what goes on, around our farm over winter......
 
 
 
The potting shed faces north so during winter it is flooded with warmth.
 
 




A little welcome colour over the darker months.



 
The snow peas are producing well.   


                                                            the broad beans are in.



 And yes we still have sun flowers. Great winter nectar for our bees.
  
And here's a mature flower head. It is destined for the chook domes.



 
We've had a little trouble with a flock of wood ducks who decided that the farm was there very own personal salad bar. They wiped out a number of beds.




                               We put nets around all the beds which seems to have done the trick.


What's happening around your place?-
