We have noticed that our Brassica plants have really shot up in the last few weeks! We still are not really sure what type of plants they are, but we hope they will grow some type of vegetable soon! Before you say we need to do some weeding, the little plants around them are mustard plants!

In class we have been talking about sustainability. Why do you think growing our own vegetables would be a sustainable way of living??

  1. So we don`t need to buy veges that have bags. We will have to do something with the rubbish that the veges come in.

  5. So you don't have to waste oil and paper and you wouldn't have to drive to the super market every week.

  6. I think the brassicas are cabbage plants because mum grew some last year and they looked like that. This year mum is growing lettuces instead.

  9. It is sustainable because you don't need to go to the supermarket and buy vegetable's.

  10. It's Sustainable because lets not forget, vegies from New World or Count Down come in plastic wrap. That's not good for the environment is it?!?
