August Garden Growth...


 What was happening in our Garden During August Garden Warrior's?
 
I know the weather was unseasonably warm and dryer than usual...
perfect for gardening!

 A large bag of strawberry plants was kindly donated to our Garden Warriors...more than we had room for in our Garden as it transpired!
 Just as well we had all these plant pots to reuse, and a fantastic stash of Tui product on hand...
 ...the strawberry potting and fertilising production line proved very efficient...
 What a tremendous effort team! Over 50 strawberry plants potted up ready to transfer to our orchard area once we have the soil prepared (watch this space).
 It was back into our stash of prize winning Tui products to prepare the "raised quarters" for planting...
 Even Lego Policeman's "quarters" were refreshed ready for some garden companions...
 Now our "raised quarters" were ready to sow...rocket, carrots, beetroot and radish for subterraneous growth!
 In went our lettuce, spinach and celery seedlings that were kindly supplied by Tui and Mitre 10 as part of our Tui School Garden Challenge start up package...THANK YOU!
 A final water before the bell goes...can't wait to see what pops up in a few weeks time!
 Our Tradesman Warriors have also been VERY busy in the Garden this month...I wonder what they have been building???
What ever it is, it certainly requires HEAPS of concentration and muscle power...all will be revealed in good time...keep watching this space!
