Greetings fellow gardeners and cooks.
Hope you've all had a good week.
Firstly, would like to send a shout out to my mate Gav King, who gave TG&C a shout out this week. And I'd like to congratulate him on being the force behind this week's herb garden initiative in the Cairns CBD. Check it out here: http://www.cairns.com.au/article/2011/09/16/182565_local-news.html.
In the meantime, here's a bit of an update of what's growing at the moment. I have to admit to a growing (pun intended) apprehension about the garden for the next few months, as it's becoming very dry and I know the moisture is going to be just sucked out. I would like to see some temporary shadecloth installed over the main vege patch though I haven't talked husband into that yet. After all, he's most likely the one to be doing the manual labour (I'm the ideas person?) so I really do need to have him onside.
Watch this space ....

| Baby pumpkins growing. Grow, my precious! |
 |
| Hopefully the next crop of corn, down the "back paddock". |
 |
| Passionfruit vine. Nice arbor, huh? These two plants are growing on two big palm trees that I requested husband shift as they were very close to the house. It seems only one has survived. |
 |
| Baby zucchinis, ripe for the pollinating. |
 |
| Oh yay! Another tomato! |
