Heirloom Tomato Plants and Other Vegetables

Val from Otaki District

We have expanded our already extensive range of heirloom tomato varieties this year and hope to have them available soon at the Waikanae and Otaki Community Markets - provided we get a few more sunshine hours!
In the meantime, we have Zucchini ready for greenhouse planting now. This is a self-fertile variety ideal for greenhouses and the cooler weather as it does not rely on bees or other insects to set fruit.
Also available now are snowpeas (both green and purple pods), sugarsnap and green garden peas.
Also coming up in a few weeks: dwarf and climbing beans, cucumbers, kumi kumi, pumpkin, kumara, peppers, hot chillis and much more.
Look for our stall tomorrow at Waikanae half-way down Park Road.
