feeling green

By Anonymous -






My new project will now be our house move and with that comes a rather large, wild garden. We have always been urban dwellers and so gardening feels a little daunting. One of my first starting points is finding imagery that inspires to get the ideas flowing. Here are some images from my 'for the garden' pin board in pinterest. I would love to be able to grow a lovely big veggie patch, any tips are welcome!

Hi, I totally understand how you feel can all be a little overwhelming.
Please find a link to my blog for our veggie garden http://nzecochick.blogspot.com/2011/03/veggies.html
I highly recommend buying the NZ gardener diary. It has a week by week guide of what to plant etc. Good luck.

A veggie garden is certainly one of the joy's of life. Nothing like being able to pick your own produce , even if it is only cherry tomatoes.

I had Contry Style Magazine come and do a shoot at my home in May... a few months later and the issue finally hits the shelves. Yay! I am very pleased with the way it all turned out. Sharyn Cairns took some wonderful photographs and captured our home beautifully, while Virginia Imhoff wrote a lovely piece about all the bits and pieces in our home and how much we have traveled etc. The ' where there's tea there's hope ' print got a big feature in the shoot and on the editors letter, which we are so pleased about and the orders have already coming rolling in. Ooooh I must say it is quite a thrill to see my own home and work in print, I am most flattered!
