It's time to pay attention to growing some seasonal food.

Budding soldiers, beans, vulnerable to the onslaught of snails, worms, moles and salt-laden South Easter winds.

Bursting radishes, finding strength in numbers.

Promises of tomatoes.

Underglaze painted on rim of plate waiting for the cherry tomatoes.

Budding leaves of custard apple tree, south Easter winds above, hang in there...It's really an incredible fruit: http://www.custardapple.com.au/

But wait we do have something to harvest.

Strong Swiss chard leaves beaming with antioxidants and it's companion is leeks.

Not too shabby, grew very quickly from the flowers of the previous post.{ lol.}

So for desert we have a harvest of strawberries for two,

a dash of organic vanilla powder

a spritz of rosewater

a twirl of honey

finely chopped fresh mint

and a grind of sugar crystals with chocolate from Melissa's

mmm, absolutely decadent...

with beaming pride of all the vitamins and minerals that make it in our garden to our experimental kitchen...
