The days are gradually growing longer. With more daylight and sun, the ground begins to warm. In two more months, we can begin to plant early spring crops. The Garden Countdown has begun.
I hated to see last year’s garden come to an end. I had a spectacular year with tomatoes and okra. I have already begun planning in my mind what to plant this year and where. My garden is small, and I try to make the best use of what space I have. I am hoping to coax a few more yellow squash into mature plants this year as well as cucumbers.
It’s fun to plan ahead, but in the end, Mother Nature will likely determine any gardener’s success or failure, and all that rain the good Mother has sent our way will certainly help.
Still – only 2 more months and spring onions will be in the ground.
