Spring Is In the Air

Spring is in the air! Last Sunday we had temperatures around 7° with a few inches of snow. Then by mid-week we were enjoying the mid 70's and even hit 82° one day. What a splendid time of year! The "official" start of Spring may not be for a few weeks, but in our family March, April and May means Spring ... and Spring means garden preparation time! Due to last year's poor garden location (thank-you Mr. Walnut tree) we moved this year's garden further back in the yard. Paige tilled and tined and tilled some more till 750 square feet of fresh garden space was exposed. Based on the lunar planting schedule, we'll get the crops in and begin enjoying our harvest in no time.
