The paths around the garden beds were quite muddy so we collected mulch from the field to spread over the path. Having a push on the wheelbarrow was fun.
Comfrey tea making time! Comfrey is a broad leafed plant that grows abundantly around our garden beds. It is well known for it's amazing fertilising qualities. We picked leaves and mixed it with water to soak for a few weeks. It makes a brown liquid that people call, "comfrey tea." Soon we will pour it over the strawberry garden to give it a boost.
Check out these baths in gardens. They have little worms living inside. Worms love to eat your uncooked left over kitchen scraps. The 'worm tea' drains off down the plughole and a bucket underneath collects the tea... or you can drain in back straight into your garden. Your veges will be healthier, more resistant to disease and much tastier.
