Plant Something to Feed Yourself

We're on the verge of growing Australia's Biggest Watermelon. Sure, we only have leaves right now but I can sense that something big is about to go down in that patch.

We've never consciously grown anything before but Landcare had a Watermelon Challenge and we spent fifteen minutes (ish) digging up a square of yard and throwing in the seeds, Jack and the Beanstalk style.

Now we're just kicking back waiting for the carbon-mile-free, prize melon to reveal itself. Some school students completed this challenge in my film here. It is also Action 103 in Teach Yr Granny to Text here.
