I work as a farmhand here in Tasmania. In the last few years it has been with potato, swede and flower harvesting. Prior to that it was 6 months in a Market Garden. In the last couple of seasons, I have been working on a local farm that grows potatoes, swedes and flowers, amongst other things.

What I would like to achieve in the next year or two, is my own small vegetable patch. Really haven’t had a lot of time in the last few years due to work commitments.

My other hobby when I have time is photography, some of which you can find on http://s649.photobucket.com/albums/uu215/SueMcMuffin/. There isn’t a whole lot on there just yet as I have only had photobucket for a short while.

I am hoping to learn how others get around some things and hopefully be able to help with some things as well.

Happy Gardening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
