Hi all,

here’s some pics of the brief farewell to Claire and her farewell to Boris (the crazy dog)

Bit of a teary good bye… we will miss her.

And Josh is back having had a few days off last week get on top of  this heavy cold (almost flu) which is going around

Here’s a before pic of the beds we finished and planted this week

and here is what the beds will look like in a month or less if this great weather keeps up (although a shower or two would be welcome now).

heaps of great rocket, baby spinach,  lettuce,  kale….everything looking superb.

AND an unsung heroine, Lucy who staffs the Eveleigh stall with me (and a pic of the stall of course) about time she got a look in and a mention as a valuable member of the team

Also this week we have a guessing competition. If YOU can identify this mushroom please let us know. It is definitely in the Boletus family and looks like a cousin to Slippery Jack but it’s not slimy like them and certainly a lot bigger……. suggestions anyone.

And BTW the rule is if you can’t identify a wild mushroom 100%….. DON’T  eat them (we didn’t)

We will have some Pine mushrooms at the Taylor Square market and maybe slippery jacks but those are the only ones we collect as I know them well and they are easily identifiable
