Winter months

Tomorrow is the last day of July, almost the end of winter, in August we can start to put the first summer seeds in, lots of bush beans, courgettes, brinjals, peppers etc

The winter was not too bad, we were lucky with the borehole pump, it worked most of the time, the bottle irrigation is still working very well, we also added a new terrace this winter, we are going to try a new method with this terrace, the no till method.
We put lots of new top soil on top , followed with chicken litter and compost, a few weeks ago we planted some new Chinese cabbage there and it is coming up beautifully.

This last monday we had some visitors from KLM again, Suzanne Jansen and William Gebbink.It was nice to have them and to show them what we are doing here, with feeding the children and to show them how the vegetable garden has grown these last years.
They helped with the handing out of the food and getting the last bit of cabbage and turnips out of the ground and putting some new bottles in new beds.
Thank you both, it was fun to have you here.
