Our 'Kimber' variety is a prolific cropper and self-fertile, which makes it ideal for early spring when the bees are not active. Last two weeks for this variety. A great range of other varieties coming on for later this month.
The first heirloom tomatoes are just a week away, again, for greenhouse or veggie pod planting only at this stage. The ground needs to warm up a lot more before we would recommend planting outdoors.
Also celery, silverbeet, broadbeans and beetroot this week. More spring favourites in the pipeline for coming weeks.
In the flower line, we have potted daffodil, carnations and freesias just coming into bloom.

Behind the fun is a serious mission. Many of New Zealand’s native species are in serious trouble. Bird of the Year raises awareness of their habitats, the threats they face, and how we can protect our feathered taonga. Important work that we love seeing!
