without my petunias.

I'm already eating out of my garden: Four different kinds of kale, three different kinds of lettuces, not to mention spinach and arugula.

Scallions. Garlic.

A full complement of herbs: sage, rosemary, tarragon, parsley, thyme, cilantro, and a small pot of basil in the house.

There's probably more but I can't think of it all.

On edit: also shallots, chives, and the most beautiful, full-size leeks.

I have a full pot of celery I was able to over winter in my greenhouse.

north 40 inches so they'll be done when tomatoes need to be in?

I have tomato seedlings just popping but even with Wall O Water jackets early May is my planned planting time. We bounced off a low of 18 just last week so lettuce isn’t safe to plant yet.

I use lights in the basement until then.

Overwintered with only a light frost cover. The curly kale and three baseball size heads of broccoli in deck pots look awesome. Kale tastes great. Letting the broccoli grow a little more before they become lunch. Checked the two raised beds I planted late last summer, enjoyed all fall and winter, and covered when it got cold. OMG the self seeded arugula looks incredible. Leaf lettuce is a little weary looking but there is salad there. Ditto the scallions. So glad I have had these all fall and winter. Currently waaay to wet to plant - we hit the 2 inch mark today on already overly saturated ground. I know I will fondly look back at all of this rain come the hot drought months of mid to late summer, but right a little less rain and more sunshine would be nice. We gardeners are never satisfied 😊

Started all of my transplant seeds today and yesterday. Understand supplies are hard to come by and some stores are limiting 4 seed packets per family. Think there are a lot of people attempting to start seeds this year.

I have my plant starts, but I'm going to need potting soil.

I just ordered a bunch of flower seeds for the cottage garden on the assumption that garden centers would not be open. Fortunately, I have a good variety of established perennials.
