1000kg of Produce in 1 year, 1 month and 4 days

Due to things going on at home, I've been taking a break from blogging over the last few months. But lots has been going on in the garden too, and I've got many things to share. First, just for the record, let me share that I DID exceed my goal to grow 1000 kg of produce, starting at the beginning of 2013. It took me 1 year, 1 month and 4 days - by the 4th of Feb 2014, my harvest totals were 1027.96 kg (after that I stopped weighing and recording). At the end of 2013, I had so far harvested 863.35 kg - in Jan another 98.36 kg came in, and in the first 4 days of Feb, another 66.244, taking me over my goal.

When I set that goal, it sounded HUGE, I had no garden to speak of, and no idea if I could do it, especially with little money to spend, and starting halfway through the summer. But I figured a big goal would motivate me to do all that I could.

Turns out, I could do it. And so can you! What are your growing goals? Remember, a goal should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant to you, and time-specific.

    This page is my blog formerly known as Kiwi Urban Homestead.

    I'm a Kiwi homeschooling mother of 5 living in a small town. After growing 1000 kg of produce in my back yard in 2013, I'm now expanding my edible gardens even further.
