It’s Autumn here in Australia, and time to get the garden tidied
up for Winter.

This week, we’ve been doing some pruning, weeding, and general
tidying up.  Of course, there’s plenty more to do – there always is
in a garden!

Today I planted some broad beans, always a productive vegetable,
and very easy to grow.    This summer, my crop wasn’t very good,
because of the drought, but now the heat is gone, perhaps I’ll get
enough this Autumn to be able to freeze some for Winter.

The zucchini are just about over, but a few small ones are
just coming along, so maybe I’ll do some pickled zucchini.

There’s not much else growing at the moment, although there are a
few raspberries on the canes, and the sultana grapes are almost ready
for harvesting.

It’s really good to have some of your own food on the table!
