    Garden Notes
    • Weeds are thriving!
    • Most of my time in the garden has been spent scraping grass and weeds from the aisles, and remulching them.
    • I discovered some volunteer potatoes in last year’s potato bed. Frost has killed the tops back, but they’re making another valiant appearance. 
    • Planting activity this month has mostly been spot-seeding the goats’ paddocks. 
    Planted
    • collards (direct sow)
    • Swiss chard (seed tray)
    • slicing tomatoes (seed tray)
    • sweet potato squash (pots)
    Transplanted
    • kale seedlings
    • rugosa roses
    • daffodils
    • grape hyacinth

    Harvested

    • lettuce
    • broccoli
    • kale
    • chickweed
    • turnips
    • carrots
    • asparagus

    Keyhole garden with multiplier onions, garlic, and lettuce.
    We’re getting occasional asparagus, very tasty and very welcome.
    Dan planted a bed of carrots and turnips last fall, and this is all the carrots he got.

    In a couple of weeks I can start outdoor planting in earnest. I’m looking forward to that. Anybody else?
