When Mother Nature tries to make up her mind on whether or not to offer up spring things can be tricky.  Do we shear the sheep or not.  They are much too hot when the temperatures rise above 65 but with nighttime temps still in the 30’s, it’s just a bit chilly for naked sheep.

Should the plastic get folded up and put away or just set alongside the bed, just in case. Broccoli, beets, leeks, onions, asparagus, carrots, lettuce, and kale are already up and growing in the raised beds and the dips in temperatures keep us on our toes.

But finally she seems to have made up her mind and we will have spring.  The parrot tulips are up and glorious in all their pink splendor and the red tulips, keeping all the herbs company, beckon us to eat our meals out in the garden, which we obey, gladly .

Welcome Spring!!
