Heirloom Tomato Plants and Other Vegetables at Waikanae and Otaki Community Markets
We have a great selection this week and these plants don't want to wait. They want to go in the ground NOW!
New stocks of cherry tomatoes, including Sweet 100, Sweet Million, Green Grape and Yellow Pear, as well as all the wonderfully tasty larger varieties.
Also Zucchini, several varieties including our favourite, Costata Romanesco (see today's DomPost Gardening column).
Cucumber, several varieties + 'Home Made Pickles' (Gherkins)
Dwarf and climbing beans.
Capsicum will be ready next week (4 different colours) as well as Takamatua Black runner beans, a New Zealand heirloom from Banks Peninsula.

Paper Shredding
I will be doing a lot of paper shredding over the next few weeks. Is there anybody who would like the shredded paper. I don't know if you can use it for hamsters and other pets, maybe it could go in your compost.
Just let me know if you want some.
