About Tropical Food Garden

Tropical Food Garden came into existence because we needed to find information and couldn’t find it all in one place. Gardening in the tropics is very different to temperate or subtropical gardening and we were new to it. We needed to learn how to grow food in the tropics, fast. So our website was born. We wanted to grow food crops predominantly but also native flowers, plants and trees to attract the pollinators sadly missing in our food garden. We also wanted to increase productivity and add some animal proteins to our diets with aquaponics and backyard chicken keeping. All of this gardening necessitated soil building, composting, worm faming and fertilising. We had to learn how to do it all. In time, we’ll get all of this information on our website.

We have rather too many Jackfruit right now, I should cull a few. They’re not ripe yet and we had a disaster with trying to harvest unripe fruit for curries. These suckers are chock full of latex.

I had a head start in website creation, I was already a professional blogger, our travel blog provides my family’s income while we get our tropical food garden up and producing. This website is just for fun, to record progress, share stories and help our kids retain the knowledge of past generations. It’s brand new and we’re still building it.
