Veggie Plants Waikanae and Otaki Markets This Weekend
Weather not looking great for gardening this weekend but the plants afre ready to go so we will be at the markets if there is at least a chance of a fine break.
Labour Weekend is the traditional time for planting tomatoes although, as the article in last Thursday's The Post points out, this is still a bit early to be planting outdoors. The soil temperature is not consistently high enough in many areas, especially with the cold spells we have been experiencing.
Nevertheless, our heirloom tomatoes (over 60 different varieties!) are coming on well and we'll have the first of them at the Waikanae and Otaki Markets this weekend, along with some early Zucchini, Pumpkin, Beans and Peas.
Look for our stall halfway along Park Avenue.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
