Tuesday's Tasting Table

 So just what have our Garden Warrior's been building in the garden this term?
 A Tasting Table!
 
Some of our Garden Warriors have been very busy in the garden wielding power tools, saws and crow bars! They removed a weather board partition from one of the changing sheds and up-cycled it with the addition of some legs...to a table!
 
Add some of our prize winning Tui product, a bit of fertiliser and you have the biggest seed raising, tasting table ever...
 Smooth some Tui Vegetable mix over 3 bags (that's a whopping 75 litres!) of Tui compost mix...
 Mix some blood and bone and vegetable fertiliser into the top layer...
 ...then choose your seeds!
 
We placed apple cucumber seeds in each corner to hang down, peas round the edges for Niagara Pea pod falls, then cress, mustard, radishes, baby spinach, sweet basil, and other tasty nibbly treats in patterns...
Bird netting draped over re-purposed fire surrounds... are a must if we are going to be first with the nibbling rather than the birds!
Hopefully when we get back into the garden next term our tasting table will be a mat of green munchiness!
 
Another good team effort Garden Warriors
