Here it is the first of March, and we spotted the first asparagus coming up in the garden. There were three stalks really, but two of them were accidentally broken off while planting some onion sets. We had to dig up the now-blooming row of cabbage and the never-producing row of spinach to make room, but their time was up and the chickens feasted. This is my friend Barbara doing the planting.
These were some of our first garden activities, other than pruning the grapevines last weekend. We are still eating last year's lettuce, but if this warm weather keeps up the 2009 garden will be planted soon. Seeds for tomatoes and peppers will be started this week. Wonder if the new moon will help in them sprouting...
