lots of goodness in the garden this week & still so much to do
+ once the ground dries out (we might be waitin' awhile), we plan to till up a large space & plant tomatoes. our starts are showing their first true leaves. ripe tomatoes are just around the corner, friends!
+ harvested the last of our winter spinach & carrots. thankful for the crunch in march.
+ the girls have started laying! over a dozen eggs this week! thankful for their work.
+ planted some beautiful cosmic purple carrots in the garden yesterday evening. along with a row of beets & black simpson summer head lettuce in between each row.
+ weeded a few beds along with our perennial flower garden. the hens love that extra green goodness in their run.
+ enjoying the work outside with my hands. relaxed after a long day with a good book & a homemade chai latte. perfect.
So much green. Loved the last thing on your list. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteso much activity!! the weather seems to be at least 2-3 weeks ahead of last years timing. i need to get seeds in the ground soon before it gets hot!
