Twas the last week of school
when all through the garden
Warriors were stirring, armed with trowels,
Cabbages, beetroot, carrots and potatoes needed harvesting with care
As our Zealandia prize vegetable seedlings were here!
The Garden Warrior GIANT cabbages were the first to be harvested...
...to change the "coleslaw quarters" over to the Zealandia summer vegetable selection...
"Quarters" were revitalised with blood and bone and Tui's vegetable mix...
a wonderful fresh mix of Zealandia green goodness was artfully arranged!
Our Garden Warriors then moved onto harvesting their carrots...
and washing and taste testing them!
Our potatoes were next to go, much fun was had hunting out these golden orbs of treasure!
These too were subjected to the "Warrior Wash" treatment...
...and sorted according to size ready for the pot with lashings of our own fresh mint!
Hot potato, hot potato...Delicious!
Our day of tasting was rounded off by sampling some of our very own beetroot that our Garden Facilitator had kindly cooked up for us!
What a wonderful harvest, we can't wait to get back in the New Year to see what we can eat!
