Almost spring.

Pre-spring storms moved through last night. Thankfully we were missed this time. With well over an inch of rain and some pretty strong breezes we move forward. 

Finally this week Wilson is getting some energy. Ah, spring time. The sap rises. The seeds get planted. We walk out to our little raised beds multiple times a day to see if anything is sprouting yet. 


Potatoes went in the ground March 3. Today we can stand and count a dozen showing themselves. My radishes and sugar snap peas are all up. Carrots and spinach are coming up in shy-fashion.

I have set up this little warming station to help germinate.
I have planted these seeds in hopes of selling plants at my Master Gardener sale in April.
Basil and dill are cooperating. 
Cone flower, Queen Anne's Lace, bell pepper, and Mexican sunflower - not so much.
I haven't checked my giant sunflower seeds today but have had one show up, so far. 
Cooler weather came in after the storm and that will not help my efforts.

Company coming in waves over the next week. Oh happy day! 
My #2 vaccination was secured this past Monday.
Our travel plans are developing.

Shalom.
