April 4 - Vegetable Garden Week One

We got a later start on the garden than usual because of our Asia trip, but may have anyway because of the frigid weather we've been having. (Usually we plant the peas around St. Patrick's Day.) We loaded up the beds with fresh top soil and compost and cleaned out some grass etc that had grown over the winter. We planted the seeds you can plant before the danger of frost has passed - snap peas, lettuce, radishes. 

Our strawberries from last year miraculously survived the winter and their runners had gone all over the little garden bed they were in - hopefully we'll get more than the one strawberry we got last year.

We planted regular radishes and watermelon radishes this year. Have you seen those? They look so pretty! When we go out in a few weekends, we'll start planting zucchini, cucumbers, and some tomatoes (in Wall-O-Waters). Yay springtime!
