Planting our Winter Crops

 As part of our Matariki Celebrations we are cleaning our garden and planting our new plants for the rest of the year as the traditional time for doing this is when the Matariki stars appear in the sky. After some discussion as a group we had decided on peas, because lots of us like to eat them, Silver beet for our chickens, Kale and broccoli. When our plants arrived we noticed something strange about the broccoli in the picture of the tag on our seeds, it was purple! Who ever heard of purple broccoli? We are all very excited to see these seedlings grow and to find out of the broccoli really is purple! We also planted some flowers in our flower garden to be bright and beautiful and to give the bees some food through winter when there are not so many flowers blooming for them.
