Livinia picking apricots in the new year
Seems I lost my blogging mojo over summer, but here are some productive garden snapshots from the last 3 months. We had a bounty of apricots and nectarines, the trees were well pollinated by the bees in spring.
A little bit of soap making, lavender and peppermint
And beeswax candlemaking from our beeswax and our eggshells
Some of our almond harvest... scorched almonds for Easter?
Golden delicious apples have been picked this week
Butternut pumpkins coming along
The second flush of raspberries ready for autumn
Banana rockmelon, hopefully will ripen before the cold sets in
Some of our 43kg honey harvest from 3 hives this season
Garden looking good after the huge rains we got on January 27. The sedums are at their best and covered in bees at the moment.
