Kitchen Garden program

Zucchini Tromboncino is an heirloom vegetable common throughout Italy. Valued for its abundant, tasty harvests. It was developed in Liguria, in northern Italy. The really nice thing about this variety is that all the seeds form in the bulbous part at the end. That means you’ve got a whole long length of stem with no seeds.

There are lots of pumpkins growing too. Next time you visit the garden, see how many you can find!

How many Rainbow Lorikeets can you spot? There are so many beautiful birds visiting the grounds at SKiPPS. Keep an eye out and let me know what you spot!

Our kitchen garden is in need of some TLC. 

If you enjoy being outdoors or have a green thumb please come and help Allison in the kitchen garden every Monday straight after drop off. No gardening skills necessary, just a love for connecting with nature. Bring a drink bottle and stay SunSmart. All tools and equipment provided. What a great way to start your week!

A big thank you to all the fabulous student helpers who have been busy helping to collect seeds from our plants. So far we have parsley, silverbeet, sunflower, calendula and hollyhock seeds ready to plant when the time is right.
