Planting for Plenty

Winter veges can be a bit hit and miss, with some bolting in the autumn, or as soon as you hit spring.  So I am never sure quite what to plant and when.  I have done my  best this year tho
This week I planted

Red Cabbage
Broad Bean seeds
Silver Beet
Curly Cale
Red Beetroot
Leeks

I am hoping that some will be edible during the winter, like the Kale.  Incidentally, Kale is supposedly the latest "in" thing in cooking.  It's one of those real oldies, but goodies.

We are still harvesting lots of  beans, about 6 more pumpkins (with lots yet to be ready), parsley, tomatoes, basil, and capsicums.
