A little bit of rain in the garden makes even the lemons pretty. Once upon a time; the vegetarian at the farm tried to make lemon and herb chicken- total disaster 🙈 Now we just enjoy lemon with tea and GnT; care to tell us how you use lemon?

Please comment if you would like to pick up some grapes from the farm; seems everyone had a problem placing an order. Will take the first 20 comments and post shares.

There are very few places in modern and especially urban life that I get the privilege to leverage being an ambidextrous human being- a super power really 😄 one of the many reasons the garden is a place that draws me closer to myself. Thank you Saturday for more than an hour in the garden; we both needed this 😅

More than 50kgs grown in our backyard. A bit of undergrowth in some but generally enjoyed by family and friends. My aunts never say they miss us without referring to umbila or umfino 😅

This is our second batch of tomatoes; to say we proud each time we get to them before the birds is an understatement 😁 they are perfect for pasta; breakfast and shatini 🥰

Welcome to the page of a family who grows food in the city of Midrand. This is a lockdown venture that has helped us stay sane when there wasn’t enough to destress with from work and what became our non-existent social life. Those who know us know who was frustrated with what 😅
