Veggie Plants Waikanae and Otaki Markets This Weekend
All the gardening blogs seem to be featuring tomatoes this month! Which is a good thing from our perspective! Great to see many of the writers recommending the same heirloom varieties that we have been growing and selling for years.
So, this weekend we still have a good selection of tomatoes as well as zucchini, cucumber (including the New Zealand heirloom, Port Albert), gherkins, dwarf and climbing beans, pumpkins and the first basil of the season.
Early pepper and chilli plants should be ready by next week but be aware that any cold snap will set these back and reduce yield unless you have a warm sheltered spot or greenhouse.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
