Ever walk into a room and think, these are my people 🌱 🪴

I am absolutely over the moon that my passion and goal for this little business of Plants Abloom is coming to fruition! So wholesome & can’t wait to keep adding to the patch there at Renata’s Family Day Care 🌱👩🏻‍🌾💚

An abundance of green goodness picked fresh from the garden. Lots of discussions took place as we sat around our basket of goodness. We talked about healthy choices for our growing bodies, and how easily they can be grown in the garden.

It was now time to have the children decide what other good foods they'd like to try grow in our garden next. Johnny's input being "tomatoes" which both Hudson and Mia agreed with. Renata thinks Strawberries might be a good idea. Mariyah suggested Strawberries and lettuce, when Hudson bluts out "cheese!!"

"Do we grow cheese in the garden?" questions Renata. Cheese doesn't grow in the garden, it's made from milk which comes from the cows boobies which is called an udder. The udder can store lots of milk and the teats need to be squeezed for the milk to come out.

Mariyah then suggests to grow a baby. Do babies grow in the garden Mariyah? Babies grow in mummies tummy says Hudson rather prompltly. He should know, he checks daily if Mummy Sally's baby is growing haha. This morning even giving Mummy Sally's baby bump a cuddle, whih is very sweet.

Mia didn't offer any new suggestions but said she wanted to grow strawberries. Somehow blueberries entered the conversation, we will need to do some research to find out when and how they grow. Johnny's keen on growing apples, which lead to a discussion on some fruits growing on trees and not in the ground or on little plants like ours.

I wonder if we could grow a miniature apple tree successfully in a pot? How cool would that be. Great brainstorming session you guys.

I set this daycare centres veggie garden up a couple of weeks ago and sounds like it’s starting to take off 🌱 💪 👶

Newly planted salad as well as rocket, is starting to really thicken up. Should we dig them out in order to seperate them a little, and then replant allowing more room to grow? Plants Abloom this one’s for you 🍃

What an fantastic sunny day to kick off the new veggie bed at Renata’s Family Day Care with the kids 🌸

Hearing the “woowww” and the smile on their faces when planting up their own flowers solidifies the importance of getting out there in the garden with the kids

Looking forward to seeing this patch thrive! See you all again soon for more gardening

What to plant next 👩🏻‍🌾 🌱

Gardening in the winter, even if its just for Sugar Snap peas, is totally worth it! 🫛

Such a great rewarding crop.

HINT - the more you pick, the more that are encouraged to grow

Hang in there team. I will be along shortly to get your veggies beds up and running 👩🏻‍🌾 Renata’s Family Day Care

Our friends from Rhonda's Family Day Care came to visit today. They gifted us with a 'Sugarsnap Pea' plant - from their garden to ours. Thank you Rhonda & children. This will go perfectly in our new veggie patch. We look forward to watching it grow xx

Plants Abloom we have a new addition to our vegetable garden. We will do our best to keep it alive until you get here.

So proud of this little Plants Abloom green thumb! 👩🏻‍🌾

She has requested her parents build her a shop

It’s made from unwanted (heat treated only) pallets from a local electronics store and hand decorated with paint pens

She’s been busy this school holidays restocking and adding home grown seasonal veggies from her garden

She’s also put pet cat trios together - esp great for indoor cats

Small plant gifts are constantly being added

Well done Emmy 👩‍🌾 Keep up the great ideas & keep growing 🌱

Lots of earth worms came out to higher ground after all the rain 🌧️

Kids had a ball scooping them all up (before the chickens spotted them) and made worm farms for them 🪱 🏠
