It’s officially Autumn. Cool nights and brisk days have arrived. There is excitement around the Patch, with pretty much everyone planting new crops – walking around the crates is a guessing game of what-do-you-think-is-that-seedling?

On our list this season:

Snap sugar peas (handy to have our tomato trellis already installed)
Snow peas (Lisa likes them loads)
Lettuce (Cos)
Carrots (yes, we’re trying them again)
Chives
Baby spinach

Mystery interloper:

Kale – two plants have mysteriously arrived in our patch. Unknown source. We think we’ll eat them anyhow.

The Big Lesson #1 – Don’t plant too much stuff
