Produce from our Garden

Today we picked the first brocolli and cabbage from the garden. The cabbage is a mini one so will do us for one meal nicely.
We also had the second meal from the silverbeet tonight.

New photos

The gardens are going really well.
We have had our first harvest of radishes and our first strawberry so far.
We have taken the protective netting off the second garden today and hope that the plants are big enough that the cats won't get into the garden. I got some whirly garedn ornaments to hopefully help and we added some cds to the top of the garden to deter the butterflies and birsds (we hope).
Here are the photos today. You will notice the addition of the lettuce garden now - that went in a week ago and they are growing really well also.
So here is the big garden first
