Spring is here!

Stopped by the garden this evening after work. We now have garlic poking up all over the place and a few bits of rhubarb peeking through. It won't be long. Will need to put the new fencing in as soon as things dry out enough, and then it will be off to the races - gardening at last!

Rhubarb!

Garlic!



Our plots may be snow free, but there are some seriously snowed gardens and very wet and flooded plots:



And of course, the obligatory sky picture. First of the season, many more to come, I'm sure:

We won't be gardening any time soon...

A quick visit to the garden this afternoon. The front plot is clear of snow, the back plot is mostly snow covered. We don't have it nearly as bad as garden plots on the back (non-meadow) side of the garden. Over near the barn there is probably still 3 feet of snow. Maybe 2 feet on some of the plots on our end of the garden near the compost area. Nothing is showing any signs of growth yet.

The front plot.

The back plot.
