I clean up a whole nice section of my backyard last year to start a shade garden and hope to make big improvements on it this year.

But yes, he's got the plans drawn on his computer and we're prepping for the local plant society sales that start in March. This year it will be zucchini (and yours were gorgeous!), tomatoes, cukes, radishes, beans, and herbs.<br /><br />Visiting from the Not a Mommy blog hop.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16787827077778614821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-18650643038775730382012-02-24T08:21:45.184-06:002012-02-24T08:21:45.184-06:00I am looking forward to fresh basil for pesto maki...I am looking forward to fresh basil for pesto making ... yum.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07037699895006404209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-51491533177541752902012-02-23T16:03:18.346-06:002012-02-23T16:03:18.346-06:00I just can't wait!! i bought tomatoes and cuc...I just can't wait!! i bought tomatoes and cucumbers from the grocery store and they just were not nearly like a gardens produce!

In early January, I ordered seeds from Johnny's Select Seeds (great varieties for northern states). I planted spinach, radishes, carrots and a few other greens in the hoop house under a row cover. Despite the outdoor temperatures hovering in the teens and twenties, the temperature under the row cover reaches 70 on a sunny day. That's good enough to germinate seeds! Who says, gardening in Maine doesn't start until June.<br /><br />May I suggest the Sweet Dumpling, winter squash. It is sweet and delicious. Definitely, worth the space.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-6548343549687611802012-02-22T21:38:15.710-06:002012-02-22T21:38:15.710-06:00Mmm, still thinking about cutting down a few trees...Mmm, still thinking about cutting down a few trees to let the light in so I can have a garden.LeAnn Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14258670728269904094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-44013311777720578782012-02-22T10:39:27.125-06:002012-02-22T10:39:27.125-06:00Hi!
