Well, thats enough funerals, social outings and crying in my weetbix.

Back to work this arvy. Picking Fushmi chilli for seed.

Nothing like the outdoors and fresh air to lift your spirits.

The whole reason why I choose to farm.

Red noodle snake beans up and growing. A long row of these as they are rare.

Red dragon snake bean and black seeded snake bean planted today.

Everything mowed, poisoned and neat. Capscums and chillis still producing.

First large seed order received for Spring 2025 crop.

Maybe, just maybe, I can do this....

Had some confidence issues.. but I am getting over them.

And so it begins again. Seeding up the new crop this afternoon.

Growing 26 varieties of micro tomatoes for seed production. New to me so we will see how we go.

Plus another crop of baby blue pumpkins and trombone pumpkins for seed.

For fresh sales, I have planted yellow squash, blackjack zucchini, lebanese zucchini, green cucumber, apple cucumber, golden zucchini, spring onion, beetroot, silverbeet, sweetcorn.

Also planted mortgage lifter tomato and brandywine tomato for seed.

Will also be direct seeding red noodle snake bean when its dry enough to get on the paddock.

Missing my partner in crime but trying to keep busy and carry on.

2025 Spring Season Wrap

43 varieties of tomatoes
2 varieties of pumpkin
1 variety of mild chilli
4 varieties of capsicum

Best crop of our career as seed growers. Alot of hard work and planning went into this season. To see the results is humbling.

I thank mother nature for providing the environment and the good fortune to produce this crop.

I also thank all the volunteers who helped with the last stage of the harvest. You are my guardian angels who appeared when I needed you most.
There will be some gifts coming your way.

In my darkest hour, I learned that I was not alone.
