I'm selecting all the biggest cloves from my last garlic harvest to replant. 130 cloves should be enough to supply us for a year and provide extra for replanting. As you can see I've still got enough to cover our needs while these ones grow. Garlic is a great plant to start with if you want to be more self sufficient- it's a bit like deciding to go zero waste, you don't have to do everything at once. Just pick one or two foods at a time to concentrate on and eventually you'll be feeding yourself completely from your garden. What about you, what foods are you self sufficient in? . #seasonalfood #lovefoodhatewaste #growwhatyoueat #eatwhatyougrow #gippsland #ecofriendly #sustainableliving #selfsufficient #selfreliant #garlic #growit #zerowaste #plasticfree #waronwasteau #goingzerowaste #vegetablegardening #zerowastehome #growyourown #wintergarden #vegiegarden #grassroots #grassrootsmagazine #organicgardener #ecoliving #selfreliance #greenliving Here's what I'm starting with for my new veggie patch. I'll use whatever has been left behind. I've never used raised garden beds myself so I'm interested to know if you like using them or not. I imagine they end up being more difficult to work in because of having to reach to dig. I'll end up filling the whole space so I need to think about where to put paths and where the shade is before I go making the beds. Can't wait to get my hands back in some dirt though - probably start on Sunday. Sorting garbage can teach us a lot about a person’s life because it is evidence of culture and habits. 😳It's also a great way to identify the most impactful ways to be less wasteful. 🚯 If I looked in your garbage and recycling bins what would I learn about you? 🤔 Feel free to share 😃 To find out what my garbage reveals about me check out my latest blog post 👆🏼 #waronwasteau #zerowaste Did you know you can use the Choose Tap App to find free tap water wherever you are?
