WestWyck News

Recently we reported on the WestWyck apple harvest (see below). But there's so much more to the WestWykck garden.

The WestWyck shared garden has just been through its Autumn crop rotation and Garden Queen Fiona (pictured) has helped us maintain ‘fastidious records’ of produce and has calculated the commercial value of the 2011 garden harvest to this point.

From 11 Dec to 2 April:

All produce: 83 kg, worth more than $600

Fi used prices from the local supermarket, so it is well under what the actual value of produce would be if she had used the price for organic veggies!
