Vegetable Patch

Okay let's get it out of the way. Yes I have one.... a vege patch that is. Originally I had this dream to completely feed my family from only my vegetable garden. Turns out that I have not found it as easy as I thought it would be.

But none the less we have supplemented our food supplies and are slowly learning what each crop needs etc. Luckily I find the whole process quite therapeutic. And the plants are really very pretty

We have had a small aphid problem of late but during the warmers months we do tend to have a lot of lady bugs so I'm not too concerned. PLus they are only eating the brussell sprouts so the kids and hubby aren't complaining!
