This Patch of Earth

Baby spinach? I think it’s at least adolescent!!
This haul will be blended with 2 big bunches of basil, lightly toasted sunflower seeds, lots of garlic, a pinch of chilli and salt, a generous amount of nutritional yeast (for cheesy flavour), good olive oil, and some aquafaba (liquid from tinned chickpeas - to reduce the oil content).
This pesto is a favourite in our household. Suits those with dairy and nut-free requirements too. 😋😋

Supersized radish (clearly we can’t keep up) and an endless supply of greens. Today it was rainbow silverbeet with brekkie. 😋😋
What takes over in your patch?

The grapes have gone crazy this year. Must be at least 10 bunches here and we’ve already been eating them for a week or so. More still on the vine. I guess we’ll be eating frozen grapes for the next couple of months! 🤩😋

Returning after 6 weeks away and there’s no need to go shopping. Even with total neglect the garden is still providing. Looks like we’re having roast root veg tonight. 😋🥰

Wow, after 6 weeks away it was so exciting to come home to all this gorgeous, organic fruit. There’s so many more things ripe but it has started to rain so I’ll take more pics tomorrow. Many of the cherries, blueberries and plums only made it as far as my mouth!! Happy to say the trees and bushes are still loaded!! 🤩😋😍

I’ve been MIA lately as I’ve been busy studying a nutrition degree. The goal is to share lots of the knowledge I’m gaining on this page and my YouTube channel (same name). Content will be a little thin on the ground while I’m studying however I have not abandoned this project, lots going on in the background.
Here’s some pics from the spring garden, plus some produce from it that we get to enjoy.
Happy gardening everyone 👩‍🌾🪴
