Our garden is planted, and already we have several promising looking sprouts--zucchini, yellow crookneck squash, green bean, wax bean, sugar snap pea, cucumber, carrot and tomato. (The tomato plants were purchased at the farmer's market, so they're significantly more than "sprouts").
Also, last weekend was the first Farmer's Market of the season, and we loaded up on lots of fantastic veggies. Oh, how I've missed the Farmer's Market! We tried bok choy for the first time ever, and I liked it a lot. James liked it a little. Plus, we got fresh eggs, carrots, potatoes, green onions, broccoli, garlic, goat cheese, buttercup lettuce, and the above-mentioned tomato plants. It was quite the bag full by the time I was done.
AND.....I talked to some folks about a farming class that meets on Friday nights, and they said I could join them!!!! So this Friday will be my first class, and I'm super-excited!!!
I never thought gardening or yard work could be tolerable, not to mention fun and exciting, but, boy, have I changed!
