Spring time












Spring time is one of the busiest time in the Vegetable garden.
Truckloads of topsoil and compost were carried to
the garden, everyone was topping up the beds, new seeds went in.
Then the watering started, it is still one of our biggest challenges, the water, especially when the seeds has just gone in, the beds have to be watered by hand for the first few weeks and of course we need to have water!!
Many days the tank is empty or the pump does not work or some body at the school switched off the pump, or there is no electricity and then of course nothing works.
The rain only starts in November at the earliest if we are lucky.
