It’s spring here, one of my favorite times of year. With COVID and other things that happened last year, it feels like it’s been two years or more since we’ve enjoyed spring.
I have lots of tomato starts in the house right now and am staring to put them out to harden. They are looking especially strong, and I’m hopeful for a good garden year despite forecasts for little rain. Spring is always the season for hope!
Currently, we are harvesting tons of lettuce and also asparagus, kale, spinach, and chard. The garlic is going strong as well.
It is great to hear that spring is advancing admirably in your neck of the desert (to mangle a cliche).
We, by contrast, had a bit of temporary snow yesterday. It’s gone this morning.
In spite of that, forsythia blosssoms are bright yellow and maple flowers are greenly competing with them.
