  During a very busy period for us our daughter 11 wanted to start a vegetable patch. It is mid autumn here. Her garden has been done for a few weeks. On the weekend we meant to get her seedlings that she planted as seeds and spread them out a bit more. As you can see her lettuces and things are growing well. We need to work on the garden more. They were very careful what to choose, and I was surprised what they found to plant that late in the year. I have some of my grandfathers watering cans which I really love having. |

That is neat, braided-rug. Her garden looks great! I always think it's so good for the children to do things like that. When we lived in Ontario and my dad lived next door to us, we always used a corner of his garden. Our children used to plant some things too.

dd11 was looking at her eldest sisters carrots that she planted also at an odd time of year with seeds that said they could be planted then. She harvested a couple of very good sized ones and some smaller ones. At the top they looked like they had gone to seed.

That's great! It would be a treat to have fresh carrots.
