18TH CENTURY LIVING HISTORY IN AUSTRALIA.

Monday 20 December 2010

That time of year in this New World.

We are busy here on the homestead harvesting the winter crops and planting the summer crops. Today for me it has been the beans. We have already pulled, picked and shucked about 3-4 of these bags, and there are still more out there. But this bag is full, and it is getting hot outside, so time to come in.

The Jerusalem Artichokes are up and doing well.


Rhubarb is the first fruit to show itself after winter.

Egg plants & some volunteer beans. The back section is corn, but it is not up yet.

Cattail Pond in the bottom of the valley is full, and the cattails are doing well, but no heads yet.
