Here are Margaret's gardening notes for January, it's not too late to get stuck in.
There's lots to do in the vegie garden. I'm harvesting the first of the
scarlet runner beans and tomatoes (Stupice, which ripen early). The
raspberries are over and the black currants are mostly in jars of black
currant jelly. The boysenberries are still gorgeous and prolific - there
is a big jar of boysenberry 'country wine' bubbling away on the kitchen
table awaiting bottling (and pretty much immediate drinking). Lots of
brassicas going copiously to seed.
Enjoy the warm and the New Year. Planting notes below.
