The Garden Begins!
Posted by admin under: Uncategorized .
Hey all,
The weather is getting consistently warmer, sunny days are here more often. And I’ve started my seeds! This year, my starts are tomatoes, huckleberries, sweet peppers, and hot peppers.
I’m making the garden a good bit bigger this year. Last year was 20′x30′, but this year will be 40′x50′! That’s quite a bit bigger, but I wanted to give my summer and winter squash plants more room to spread out.
I’m also planting some new and interesting plants that I’ve never tried before. My dad likes kohlrabi so I’m planting some for him. I’m planting some broom corn, too (the link goes to a great site for organic and heirloom seeds, The Seed Saver’s Exchange. But I actually bought my seed from Baker Creek. I just liked that picture).
What are your plans for gardening this year? What things have you started?
