Everything has been pretty much harvested. Corn failed to grow, looked like they were getting munched on by grasshoppers. Carrots came out nicely. Even after cooking them, they have an almost sweet earthy taste to them. Very different from store bought ones. Capsicums plants are still tiny, so not sure how they will end up. Just gonna let them be and see what comes of them.

One of my mandarin fruit trees has heaps of ready to eat fruit now. Just plucking one off every day to eat.

Probably gonna leave the garden over winter, and get back to planting come spring. Family have requested watermelons again, so that will be the next crop.
