Planting our Winter Plants

The days are getting shorter and the mornings cooler which means that it is time to prepare our garden for winter. We had lots of plants that we had grown from seed using our little gardens and they needed to go into the ground but first we had to prepare the soil. 

 We had a great time digging over the garden and breaking up the big clumps of soil that had formed under the surface. 

 There was lots of team work involved, we had to share space and work together to make sure all the garden was covered. 

 Shaan, Louie and Gabriel wanted to have a try with the big spade, they found it tricky by themselves but solved the problem by working as a team. 

Gabriel and Shaan are helping to plant our baby plants. This season we have planted some late courgettes, red and green cabbages, silver beet, celery, cress, rocket and butternut squash.
