25.01.2022 Time to get serious about planting my sweet potatoes. The shoots are looking healthy and have grown tiny roots at the base of each shoot that are ready to burst into life. As soon as they are planted they will take off. For subscribers to the monthly Hunter Backyard Veggie Growers planting and sowing guide, the December issue will have links to videos and content that will show you how I grow over 25kg from a tuber just like this one.

25.01.2022 Now this is a good looking bush bean! Better plant it out this weekend. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #beans

25.01.2022 It's a great time of the year to grow veggies. Everything is growing strongly and I can't wait to eat the harvests. There are some exciting developments coming soon to Hunter Backyard Veggie Growers, more workshops, open days, and a new subscription opportunity for those who want access to exclusive veggie growing information and my planting plans. I'm excited! #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #subscribe

25.01.2022 Spring is a time of year when the pests are ramping up. So now I appreciate nature's pest controllers all the more. Read my latest blog about my cooperation with nature in managing pests. What are the natural pest controllers in your patch?

25.01.2022 I'm happy to share my veggies, but not today! I think this fella missed the day at school when they taught everyone about camouflage. I spotted him from 10 metres away. What's your prefered control method? Mine is birds. #HBVG #birdfood

20.01.2022 There are still some tickets available for this Staurday's workshop if you were wanting to come along. Also the Heirloom plants that will be on sale on the day are looking great. Grab your tickets now!

19.01.2022 Who else loves figs? Mine are looking spot on! These should be ready in January sometime. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #fig #BlackGenoa

19.01.2022 Enjoyed running today's tomato growing workshop with some keen tomato growers. Planted some more plants, talked about soil preparation, was able to show how I prune and train the plants, shared my insect protection secrets plus a whole lot more. The next event with tickets still available is an open day on October 31. Check facebook events to book. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #hbvgopenday #tomatoes

15.01.2022 Not too sure if I have done the right thing by trying to grow some Red-Veined Sorrel. I tasted a leaf and I found that it was not the most pleasant tasting thing I have eaten lately! Tell me your experience with it and what's the best way to eat it. It is a good looking plant though. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #redveinedsorrel

15.01.2022 Great looking Hierloom tomato seedlings that will be ready just in time for sale at the first tomato growing workshop in 10 days time. Link to the event in comments below if you are keen to join me at the workshop. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #tomatoseedlings #tomatoes

14.01.2022 A real tomato at last! The season's first tomatoes are almost ready. A couple more days and they will ripen to a deeper red colour and develop in flavour. I am looking forward to tasting my own sun ripened home grown tomato. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #tomatoes

12.01.2022 This is just a few of my fantastic looking Crimson Globe beetroot that I harvested today. These will probably be pickled ready for Summer salads or burgers. Yummo! #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #Beetroot

10.01.2022 The first of hopefully many spagetti squash for the season. The plant looks healthy enough to carry a decent load this year, so I hope it delivers. This is just 4cm in length so far so there is lots of growing to come. How are yours? #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #spagettisquash

09.01.2022 Garlic planting time! 50 healthy looking corms saved from last season's crop ready to send down roots and burst through the soil then grow like stink! These are Mammoth Purple and Elephant Garlic. Have you planted yours yet? #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrownveggies #Garlic #Mammothpurple #elephantgarlic

08.01.2022 If you are looking for a quick crop to grow try some Pak Choi, these were sown just 8 weeks ago and I reckon that they are just about perfect. They were also grown under insect proof mesh which means I have never had to use any type of bug control at all. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #pakchoi

08.01.2022 Spring has definitely sprung in my patch How are your seedlings going? Have you managed to sow them yet? #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #seedlings

07.01.2022 This is the first season that I have produced Ruby Red Grapefruit. It is a 4 year old tree and they look fantastic. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #grapefruit#rubyredgrapefruit

07.01.2022 The first tomatoes for the season have set and will swell fast. If I close my eyes I can taste them already, sweet sun-ripened tomatoes, the taste of Summer. How is your crop of tomatoes looking so far this season? What types have you got in this year? #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #tomatoes

07.01.2022 Come and learn ways to improve your tomato growing experience. From soil preperation, planting, pruning, pest management and a whole lot more. Heirloom tomato plants will be available on the day.

05.01.2022 One ticket left! Be quick to grab your spot..

02.01.2022 The bean climb begins. Every day they strive to get to the top and when they get there they will keep reaching upwards towards the sky in search if something to hang on to. Gotta love beans! #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #beans #climbingbeans

02.01.2022 Russian Garlic. Its a vigorous grower and a reliable producer every year. Not as strong in flavour as other types of garlic but when they grow this big, who cares! #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #Garlic #russiangarlic

02.01.2022 Strawberries are coming along nicely this season. Now all I have to do is keep the slugs away. #HBVG #freshisbest #homegrown #Strawberries

02.01.2022 How would you get better heads in your cabbages folks? Is it nutrition, temperature, timing or something else? I would be interested in your ideas.
