We moved house so the veggie patches had to be dismantled. We rebuilt them at the new place but due to not be situated in a good location plus a drought, plus chickens who don't respect boundaries, the venture failed. The gardens here were well established but we had to replace a lot of the plants due to them being toxic, we are slowly moving to a more native garden but have kept the roses because they are beautiful and smell gorgeous.
The veggie patches have now been reinstated in the front garden and are doing well, loving all the rain we've had lately. I've also planted an orange tree and a fig tree in a pot to replace the trees that had to be removed to make way for a pool.
One thing we couldn't have at the old house was chickens, now we have three. Chickens are pretty easy to keep but at the moment one of them is broody and trying to hatch an invisible egg. Here are two of the ladies when they were younger. We've had them almost two years now and we're pretty sure they are Australorps. We've also since added a leghorn chicken who is a more consistent layer but way harder to catch!
