Join me at The Wonky Carrot Homestead as I walk you through what’s thriving, what’s struggling, and what’s completely failed after 35–40°C heat, extreme fire conditions, and a rapid weather change. From zucchini, tomatoes, capsicums and pumpkins to failed Three Sisters planting, soil issues, wildlife damage, bees, and new garden beds. This is a real, honest look at growing food through a tough Australian summer.
If you’re gardening in hot climates, dealing with heatwaves, poor soil, or wildlife pressure, this video is for you.

The purple cabbage looks so pretty
Good idea to build your new bed next to the one that's doing so well. Our harvests, apart from zucchinis and salad green are still a way off. Good to see your tomatoes doing so well.
