Tell us about your garden and what you're growing

We love our tomatoes and beans - seem to be a staple at this time of the year. We also grow capsicum, cucumber, lettuce, broccoli, cabbage, zucchini, pumpkin, herbs, silverbeet/spinach and peas. This year we are trialing a different way of growing spuds and yams and for the first time have planted kumara. Had no luck with brussel sprouts but will have another go next season.
Still havent had time to prepare the bed for asparagus. A constant challenge to keep out the chooks! Ours are free range so if anyone wants chicks let me know - they often turn up unexpectedly!
