ORGANIC FARMING

Today we harvested from the Sands Shamba for the start of the weekend- all totally organic.

Grown with the compost we make on site with a little vermi 'tea' from our worms and natural Neem deterrent against some of the pests.



A very happy Chef Andrea
Soft leaf lettuce, rucola, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, yellow passions, carrots, red leaf and green leaf basil, chives, birds-eye chillies and our first ever scotch bonnet chilli. More to come.
