Hello there,

Who knows what sort of weather you have where you live as what you have is what you have! Here in the southern hemisphere we are looking forward to spring and then summer ... and of course in the northern hemisphere it may be early, but of course autumn and winter are coming up ... albeit still some months away. Still, the cycle turns and there is a season for all to enjoy whenever.

Go here as soon as you can ...

Kids in the Garden


The latest article is on the subject of Kids in the Garden.

Get your children into the garden and with your containers early and set them up for a lifetime of pleasure, good eating, sensible lifestyles and some very valuable life lessons that become natural extensions of their characters rather than stressful additions learnt grudgingly. Go green early!

Have you got any stories of children in the garden, any Tips? Successes? Events? Club activities? Prizes won?

Let us all know please - good stuff awaits I am sure.

Cheers now,

Hello all,

I was recalling and chatting the other day about how we had the bi-annual flower show that came to our farming community and village. It was always an exciting time for anyone with any sort of interest in gardening or growing things. There were sections for all aspects of gardening with prizes for the best on show and the best of section etc.

I remember too the rush of emotions as a result of entering the children's competitions for vegetables grown (by yourself) and for floral art - both normal display and miniature arrangements. Oh dear how 'tummy-dropping' it was to see the Judges walk past making notes. Hmmm. And winning a prize? Oh, such a pleasure to see your Mom's smile.

Do you have flower shows like this in your community? Are children encouraged to take part in gardening and growing food and so on at school?

Please share any stories you have - cheers
