Tomato - mania 🍅 I’m always an eager beaver to get started early with planting my tomatoes. The rule of thumb is wait until Labour weekend, but if you can plant them under shelter then you can jump the gun and start planting! After a delivery of seedling mail tomatoes from Grow with Farmlet I got to work planting them using Seacliff Organic Balanced Tomato Formula. Six heirloom tomato varieties have been given the best start with this formula And I’m looking forward to high yielding and nutrient dense tomatoes Packed with trace minerals and humic substances to aid in plant uptake, the calcium in this Tomato fertiliser aids in preventing disorders like blossom end rot and helps to correct acidic soil conditions Keep watching the growth story 🍅🍅🍅

A trip to Hawke’s Bay this weekend and I finally got to visit Tikokino Peonies. Meeting Linda and talking about her venture into peony growing in the region was so interesting. As we all know this beautiful flower is never here for long time each season and this year looks like a bumper crop that has arrived early. Make the most of these beauties while you can!

KAI FEAST - the second book in the KAI series Christall Lowe invites you to a hākari (feast) at her family table — replete with mouthwatering dishes infused with the flavours of Aotearoa, brimming with manaakitanga (hospitality), and served with wonderful tales of nostalgia. In this beautifully illustrated story of feasting you’ll find a bountiful basket of kai and kōrero gathered all the way from the mountains to the sea. It’s lip-smackingly good kai — from soul-warming kaimoana hot pot, umu pulled pork and hāngī infused with native rongoā, to kūmara donuts, sweet korimako cake and burnt sugar steamed pudding. Recipes are woven with stories of traditional gathering and feasting, tips on cooking for a crowd and notes on foraging and using native herbs. With Kai Feast in your kitchen, you’ll be prepared for any occasion, big or small. It’s time for kai. It’s time to feast.
