Gardening blogs

I have an iGoogle homepage set up with feeds from my favourite blogs. I have one page for library ones, one for family and school ones, one for food ones and one for gardening ones. Finding interesting library and food blogs is easy but I only have 3 on my gardening page. Does anyone know of any good gardening blogs? Especially vegetable gardening or permaculture ones.

Can't help Penny. I searched for hydroponic ones as well with no luck. I think gardeners are too busy growing things and prefer to be outside and active.

Penny, do you have the NZ Gardener blog?
The magazine editor Lynda Hallinan lives in urban Auckland and is attempting to cut her food bills and become self sufficient. At the moment she is in Europe touring garden and garden events. She writes very well, very humorous and the results she has achieved both in her garden, and cost cutting are amazing.
Here's the link if you dont have it already.

Cheers
Paula

Hi PennyG, I don't read any blogs but your question got me wondering. I thought I would find the gardening blogs of people in other countries interesting so I did a wee search and you might like to check out some of these:

I already had the NZ Gardener blog, thanks Paula
I love the selection of overseas blogs you have found Jennifer and added them all to my homepage
And Shirley found me a great NZ one.
My gardening page is starting to fill nicely now. The other 2 I already had, in case anyone else is interested are [earthfriendlygardening.wordpress.com] and [permaculture.org.au]

Not a blog but a very good gardening web-site is [davesgarden.com]
If you go to the communities page, there is forum (you must register to post) and a list of around 2000 gardening blogs, mostly American I would imagine, but there might be a NZ one among them. You'd have fun searching!!

Found this one, by chance. Australian, and seems to cover a bit of everything - vege gardening, composting, worm farms, stitchcraft, environmental matters, recipes, budgeting/frugal living, etc.

Hi yes i am a kiwi in the lower north island

As for the animals we don't have - i assume you mean the squirrels and cutworms.
