The Castor Oil (Ricinus communis) Mamona plant has found its way right in the middle of our new Kitchen healing garden. Brilliant! It wasn't growing there before and another new comer is the tasty vegetable Purslane (Portulaca oleracea) Beldroega. A great mineral rich food eaten in salads and soups. Purslane is also a medicine and can be used for example as a topical application in skin inflammations.
As the building is getting finished and phase I of the trees being planted is completed. We continue to find our way with working with the different soils we have, the rocks and constructing raised beds. We have a good piece which has been cleared of some of the big rocks under ground, the soil has been turned and we will be planting vegetables, soft fruits and herbs direct into the soil, it is known as the Kitchen Healing garden and already has shade as well as full sun. It is an extension to the big Orchard and I love this area.
