Foxs Lane.

Hello!

I've been struggling lately to work on both my blogs.
So for the moment I have decided to blog almost all of the time at Foxs Lane.
I'd love you to come and join me over there.

See you soon. x

Garlic & a blog post.

These five kilos of garlic were part of an order picked up this morning to be delivered to Circa, The Prince in St Kilda, Melbourne.

A few months ago Juliette from Homingpigeon came to visit Daylesford Organics and interview us for her book. You can check out what she thought of her visit on her blog here.

Fluffy Ducks.

Bren will be at The Slow Food Farmers' Market at the Abbotsford Convent in Melbourne tomorrow (Sat 26th) from 8am - 1pm. Mention this blog and he'll give you a free certified organic, free range dozen pullet* eggs.

The Abbotsford Convent is in St Heliers Street Abbotsford, Melways ref 44G5

Have a great weekend, keep warm and Go Saints!

*Pullets are chickens that are less than a year old. Pullet eggs are small and packed full of the good stuff. People often tell us these are their favourite eggs.

To Market - To Market.

This Saturday the 12th of September we will be at Collingwood Childrens' Farm farmers' market.

We will be selling the most delicious free range, organic eggs in town.

The weather will be a perfect 25 degrees so come and say hi and make a morning of it.

Anyone who mentions this blog will get themselves a free carton of pullet* eggs.

Can't wait to meet you!

Home in September.

We've been away at the beach for 2 weeks.

I thought I'd keep this blog going while we were away but with reports from home of massive amounts of rain, crazy winds and wild, wintry conditions it felt like we were a million miles away. It felt like things would have changed so much, that the photos I had taken before we left would have been out of date.

We got back last night and went for a long walk this morning to see what was going on.

The calendulas are flowering like mad in the green house.

The parsley is bushy and tastes amazing.

The kale has gone to seed.

The broad beans are flowering. I adore broad beans and am very excited by this progress.

The cabbages have hearted.

There are puddles everywhere.

Miss Pepper seemed very happy to swap the water sports of the past 2 weeks for this new type.

The first 3 globe artichokes of the season.

We had a lovely time away but it is great to be back.

Oh, except for the fact that it has just started pelting with rain and it is about 20 degrees colder than what we've become used to.

A HUGE Happy Fathers' Day to my Dad, to John, Bren's Dad and of course to Bren, the wonderful Dad of my girls.

Introducing Foxs Lane

I'd like to let readers of the Daylesford Organics blog know that I have started up a second blog; http://foxslane.blogspot.com/ 

Foxslane will be a blog that documents the things I make, bake and create.

Go on over, have a look and let me know what you think.
