January 2010



Glad to say goodbye to this month of ice and snow. It's been a terribly cold winter with little opportunity to get outside and do much beyond daily animal chores. The hoophouse, however, has offered a nice respite, with plants growing prolifically. Lots of spinach, mustard greens, swiss chard, bok choy, beets, turnips, radishes and a range of lettuces.

Most of the month has been spent inventorying my seed collection, perusing new selections in seed catalogs and making lists of things that need doing.
