Bluey's Patch is Fun!

 

Whether it's checking the rain, admiring the plants, filling the wicking bed or embracing Mr Jo Jo the Scarecrow, Bluey's Patch is a fun place to be!

Winter Colours of Nature!

 

Winter may be upon us but Nature is still "showing-off" its colours ... from the magnificent autumn tree; with its playful leaves, the lemon coloured jonquils tentatively popping up their heads, daisies putting on a green leaf flourish, to sweet pink geraniums decorating the "Let's Cook and Create" pancake making, activity! 

Still with all this beauty the work must go on, so the rubbish trolley needs emptying and the wicking bed is given a drink!

"If You Build It ...

“If you build it, they will come!” Rain that is … the rain gauge had just been installed (thanks, Mr Fuller) and the heavens opened … 164mls has been recorded, over two occasions! A bird was happy to have a fresh rain water drink from the Birdbath! Also, it was a good time to replant one Wicking Bed with Carrots, Beetroot and Chives and to start preparing the other two, by digging-over and adding compost. A few left-over peas were discovered, and eaten, in the process! The Term 3 Environment Team was busy settling into their new roles, keeping the Crunch & Sip on the move!
