In today's episode
We interview Erin Allison, Grower, and owner/operator of Harvest Homegrown in Hawea. Erin generously shares a wealth of vegetable-growing knowledge gained over the last eight years growing food for her weekly subscribers.
Erin talks about her regular hands-on workshops where attendees learn season-relevant, vegetable garden tasks and tricks
Our tea of the day is delicious, refreshing, Sage - so easy to pick a few leaves of this year-round perennial.
We’re in the Cultivate period of the moon calendar until the 13th, then from the 14th of January, it's all go with seed sowing and seedling transplanting.
Windowsill gardening - remember to succession sow your micro sprouts
Our Vegetable of the week is Garlic - how could we manage without this wonderful staple
Book of the Week - Erin recommends her favourite Winter Vegetable gardening book - The Winter Harvest Handbook by Eliot Coleman A very informative guide but do remember it's aimed at Northern Hemisphere gardening so you will have to adjust the months.
Instagram of the week @harvesthomegrown
Glossary - angustifolium - The numerous long narrow leaves scattered along stems (Latin for narrow-leaved). Example Lavender
We catch up with Raych from Auckland as she updates us with the most recent ‘find’ in her garden - we love garden bloopers and ‘funnies’ so keep them coming.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, which is very much appreciated.
Happy Gardening
