I like this type of social media as in a few sentences and a photo (microblogging), I am able to update any of my followers as to what is happening in the Vegetable Garden in that week and as it happens.

Vegetables Sowed and Growing in March
If the Daily Tweets are not your thing, don’t worry because at the end of every month, I’ll be updating you on what I have been sowing, growing and harvesting in that Month.
The Monthly Timeline will hopefully be a very useful Growing Summary to refer back to it next year and it’s also a great reminder, if you wanted to sow something on the list.
