I finally planted some of my cool weather seeds, since my perennials and fall plantings are up already.  I’ve been eating chives and green onions since sometime in March or April and my mint, carrots, garlic, sugar snap peas, strawberries, and blueberries are up and going strong. I did plant asparagus about a month ago, but it will take many years before I actually get to eat it. I love having raised garden beds, because it really extends the growing season. So yesterday I planted green beans, kale, baby bok choy, and lettuce. I’m hoping to plant roots soon, including carrots, parsnips, turnips, rutabaga, radishes, beets, and potatoes.  I’ll probably wait until May 15th to get the watermelon, cucumbers, tomatoes, broccoli, jalapenos, green and purple bell peppers, basil, cilantro, sage, rosemary, dill, and grapes planted. I’m so excited to finally get things growing again! I’ve still got a lot of work to do, but we’re getting there!
