AFTER(Photograph taken in September)
We have spent the last two months clearly the land before the September rains and we managed to achieve it with only days to spare! The growth rate here is quite phenomenal and only hours after the first rainfall, you can see the new shoots appearing and within a day you have a complete ground cover, as you can see from the before and after photographs!!
Back in June we had an attempt at growing our own melons from seedlings, with quite an amazing result. We have managed to grow seven in total, which is not bad for our first attempt. Our aim is to be self sufficient in vegetables and fruit within the next three years!
We had a fantastic harvest of figs this year from one tree, so we are on our way!
