It looks as though spring is finally on its way to the Alternative Kitchen Garden, and it’s time to finalize the 2010 Garden Plan. There’s going to be edible flowers and tea herbs, but what about the conventional vegetables?

Riley Jordan from the Dig It Down Under podcast is dropping in give an AKG Correpsondent report on what it’s like to garden in Melbourne, and there’s still time to enter my birthday book giveaway if you’re quick.

  3. Hey Emma,

    The Manuka plant that you’ve planted for tea. Is that the same one that is used to collect Manuka honey from?? In which case you could have manuka tea with manuka honey.

    Cheers

    Riley
