My gardening frenzy

Archertastic is in a gardening frenzy!
 My little garden is growing awesome! I have moved it into the glasshouse because it was getting a little froooossstyyy!

lettuces

We have a really big garden with loads of veggies and fruit. We have a big glasshouse that my dad made from bricks and old windows. In the glasshouse we have limes, babaco, orange, mandarin, avocado, bananas, passionfruit, strawberry, cape gooseberry and herbs.

yummy babaco


cool bananas!





awesome avocado








the great kaffir lime


 
Marvellous mandarin












our free range chickens work very hard at squeezing eggs out for us every day. Sometimes we even have so many that i feed them to our dog Mojo!

The days with my WWOOFERS and friends

It's been a busy few weeks for ArcherTastic.
I've had a day with the loving Annie at her beach house making a lantern.

We also walked up Mount Duncan with Auntie Doona. It was a lovely day and we could see everywhere. Jhett ate all the chocolate when we got to the top! We also lit a little fire which was cool.

On top of the world
We've had some awesome WWOOFERs staying with us lately - 2 from America and 2 from Holland. They were great at Judo and they showed us a few moves. We love having WWOOFERs and meeting people from all over the world.

WWOOFERs and Woofer (Mojo)

Until next time Bye for now.
Oh, by the way I'm over $300.00 for my well so far!

Mondays with my Grandmother

Today I spent time with my Nanny at her place. We went walking and saw some baby rabbits and guinea pigs - we fed them some apple. We went to the Landpower tractor shop and saw some huge tractors - they were amazing. We played cards together and looked at old photos of mum and read her school reports and her suck-up letters to the easter bunny!! We found a Tazzie Berry Bush in Nanny and Poppy's garden and picked a bucket full - they didn't even know that the berries were edible. So yummy! I love spending time with Nanny and Poppy.

Welcome to my world!

I live in a beautiful world. I have a little ratbag brother named Jhett and together we explore this world.
Recently we all went camping in an awesome tent that we bought for $20 at the op shop. We went to Bridport with our friends the Burrows and I loved swimming in Mermaid Pool. Then we went to Tomohawk and I played on the beach and we got to have an icecream every day! Dad and Jhett just went fishing all the time and they caught heaps of fish - I went swimming. At night we had a fire on the beach and we caught a "Fiddler Ray" - Jhett was so excited - we put it back though.

The Fiddler Ray - so cute!
At the moment i am saving up for a well. It costs $1500 and so far i have $258. I raised $163 from our vegie stall at the Organic and Sustainable Living Festival in Penguin in February. I was inspired by Ryans Well.

This is the well I am saving up for.
