Jules Garden

Jules Garden My journey into creating a edible garden. My husband used to say I had a purple thumb and am trying to prove him wrong.

My name is Julie and I am a professional photographer (please don't judge my photos as sometimes they are photographed on my iPhone because I'm too lazy to get my camera out LOL) I am based in Tawa - Wellington but was originally from Chch. This is my journey that started in May 2020 to create an edible garden and learn and make mistakes along the way. I'm not new to gardening BUT I I am no way an expert.

First jersey bennes of the season. My dinner was pretty much all the veges from my garden , broccoli salad, roasted honey and orange glazed carrots, very woody roasted beetroot that no one ate 🤣 even used lemons from my garden. My mum would love this. Not the prettiest of plating but very yummy!

Keeping myself busy…. The last of my broccoli and almost the last of my carrots. Drying some of my camomile for tea.

From first strawberry of the season 🤣 first raspberry 🤣 plums, tomatoes, potatoes etc. The garden is full of weeds but I’m time poor. So many seedlings to plant but one step at a time. Love how this year I haven’t had to grow coriander, echinacea, lemon balm, oregano, sage, some lettuce, cosmos, lupines, and so much more. Self seeded or perineal.

Tomato relish from my frozen tomatoes and feijoa chutney from my neighbors tree that falls on our property ( not sure of the amount of vinegar in this recipe as it’s quite sharp ) and a well earned bubbles in an non appropriate glass. With fennel and radishes to pop use tomorrow night.

A small garden haul. Cos for chicken Caesar salad tonight. Only a few chili’s left on the plants.
