Well we had an eventfull easter sunday, the next door neighbours dog got out and tried to eat Xena, one of the baby chooks so named because she stood up to Big Ears (Big Black Chook) when she was only 4 weeks old. The chooks ran out into the street and onto the road and the little dog pounced on Xena, I grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and asked the guys over hte road to hold him while i ushed the others home. I couldn't find Xena anywhere and spied the next door neighbours cat going under the house so I assumed the worst. However later when weeding the garden she appeared, and I have no idea where she went or how she escapes, but the screams she made as the dog attacked her have made me go vegerarian.
This blog is about all things edible and how to grow them, from my experiances as a home gardener and in my job as a horticulturist and teacher in sustainable and edible gardening, follow my mishaps and adventures as I explore organic and sustainable vegetable gardening around the world and practice my findings in Geelong, Australia.
