About

  • I grow vegetables in an organic community garden in Canberra, Australia. We are characterised by mild winters, with a long frost danger zone, and a short, dry, hot summer. Our natural, unimproved soil is mainly clay, with a shallow (a few centimeters only) topsoil. Drought, frosts and climate change worry me. The peace I feel in the garden inspires me. I also keep a diary, listed as "a weft yarn". It chronicles the things I make in the home.

Green thumb Sunday # 13 - Saint Nick in the Manchurian Pear

This is the Manchurian Pear tree in our front driveway. My 10 year old son has climbed up to wait for his sister and surprise her on her return from her after school activity. He did  have the beard up and seemed taken aback when she called out "What are you doing in the tree Nick?" We did have a laugh though.
