Yesterday we set up our tepee sticks that Ochello helped us cut from the jungle and Sasha prepared the holes to sow the seeds.
Sasha went to get the compost from the compost pile
Sania holding onto the Morning Glory seeds. A spectacular blue flower creeper. My children know not to put it in their mouths, since it can be toxic. Moonflower or Beans would be better option but I didn't have any of those seeds left and my children insisted on the Morning Glories, they know which plants to respect. We also sowed some seeds of gourds, cosmos flowers and sunflowers.
Our moonflower tepee we made a few years back

My friend Christina recently made a beautiful one out of bamboo and wrapped silks around it. http://momenttomomentdk.blogspot.com/2010/06/bamboo-projects.html
