Even though Windgrove is most known for its Peace Garden, there is a small veggie garden consisting of two possum proof, chicken wired domes. Inside today's photo can be seen silver beet, spinach, tomatoes, snow peas, regular beets, and several types of lettuce. Despite strong winds and constant exposure to salt spray, everything is growing just fine. Two enthusiastic people from California, Ginny Evans and Tyson Atwell, stayed here for two weeks to get this garden happening. They were the first unofficial woofers (willing workers on organic farms) to stay at Windgrove. Living in the Peace Bus and joining in on the preparation of meals and swimming at Roaring Beach, it was a definite win-win for everyone.
