Heirloom Tomato Plants and Other Vegetables
Hoping the weather will be kind for the markets this weekend. More varieties of tomatoes available but some types, especially the 'black' tomatoes, selling out fast. A good selection of cherry toms, and bush types suitable for pots and veggie pods.
Snow peas, both green (the original 'mange tout')and purple podded.
Clearance on dwarf and climbing beans (slightly windswept!). Next planting of beans will not be available for two or three weeks. Some zucchini and pumpkin still available this week and then not again until later in the month.
What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
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.
