First Post

Welcome to our Garden Blog - Anne and I live on 4.5 acres on the southside of Brisbane and have done so for over 20 years.

This blog will be about our garden , what we are doing, what we have learnt along the way, and related matters. We try to grow as much of our food as possible including protein but not grains.

We have an aquaponics setup that I will blog about , a large vegetable garden that struggles in our summer heat but thrives in winter, quite a few fruit trees, and lots of weeds ( that we have recently started to eat!)

Our yard includes a root cellar looking like an old mine site, a frog pond, and lots of quirky stuff!

Initial posts are mainly going to be about the edible weeds I have found on my property - we have well over 20.
