* Eatable Garden Update *

Hows things in the garden ?
Lets have a look !

View from the house.

Cabbage, Endive and Kale growing slowly but steady.

The ramp around the terraced garden. Home made retaining wall made from corrugated iron and waratahs. Lets hope its earthquake proof !

From left to right: Buttercrunch lettuce, Cauliflower, Celery, Beetroot, Leek and Onion.

This is the NEW back end of the garden , the left side will be for vegetables and the right side will become a sitting area. The black planter box holds our strawberry plants. It took a lot of digging and removing stubborn weeds to get this cleared, yes we are still talking EXTREME gardening !

The crosses are the poles for the washing lines , no religious meaning at all !

Not a bad view , even on a shitty day like this ! Midwinter mind you... As you can see the retaining wall is held up by an old car bonnet and a wooden door and metal pipe that were all unearth in the digging process. Gefundenes fressen we should say.


The tools.

More garden updates soon, spring cant be far !

BCM Stencil project by P3R

-BCM-

What the hell is BCM ??

The BCM started in 2006, Lyall Bay, Wellington, New Zealand.
Its a co-operation of a small bunch of people that share a passion for spraypaint and art (in its own most un-artful wayI must add.)

Basically BCM is just a name me and my former flatmates gave to a phenomena that has taken over our lives. It involves boxcutters, stencils and spraypaint. Members so far are myself , Mark and Irsten in the USA and from Auckland and Dunedin we have Jimmy Best aka Ballbags and the Roadhawk sidekick. A small group of people with incredible talents in their own fields and (temporary) bonded by what is the BCM Project.

We are currently in the restart phase so keep an eye out for future projects soon !
