Are You Ready To Garden Yet?
Oh man, I am so looking forward to sunshine, and we are still behind on getting the seedlings going.
We were talking about gardening on LucyLillie's birthday with Robin and our neighbor, and he said he had just gone over his garden that afternoon with the first tilling. Matt had just been thinking he needs to get out the tiller and get it going.
Rachel planted several seeds a couple of weeks ago, and we saw plants at the market, and we so wanted to get out and plant them! I spoke to my Dad yesterday, and he said that we could still plant peas here, and get in the potatoes. Our planting date isn't until the middle of May, so we usually wait until around the 22nd or so to put in the seeds and plants into the ground.
Matt said it is supposed to snow here this weekend, so we'll see. That is what happened last year; it was 80' the last week in March and snowed the second week of April. Crazy Indiana weather!
I can't wait til we get the peas and potatoes in tho! :) I hope we can keep the chickens out of them!
ack!

I am itching to get outside and do some gardening too. I'm hoping to pull out our seeds today and see what I have to buy. It's supposed to get cold here this weekend with some snowy-rain - May 15 is supposed to be the last frost date, if I am remembering correctly. Spring will be here before we know it, though, even in Michigan (and Indiana)! I'm off to check out your post from last year for some inspiration. :-)
