I wish! We are planning on more snow this weekend (although we might sneak in a 50 degree day before then.) Sounds like you have a nice start on your garden!

I have my broccoli,lettuce,carrots and snap peas in now.
Sunday,I'll do my cabbage,Pak Choi and onions.

aliweed - Nice blog. I would love to grow broccoli, brussel sprouts and califlower but they get covered in aphids and tiny little black bugs. I don't use chemicals, unless it gets really really bad, so have given up growing them. I would like to try broccolini (cross between broccoli and Chines kale) but it would probably get covered too.

My garden still under two feet of snow, but it is in the 40's for the weekend!! Woohoo!! With any luck I'll plant the early spring things mid April.

I did!

I've had radishes planted for about a month or so, about 2-3 weeks ago, I put in lettuces, cabbages, celery, peas, brocolli, cauliflower, beets, and onions. All transplants.

Last weekend I planted out the tomatoes and last night I planted the peppers.

I am going to start the squash soon but need to find a place to plant it...need rest of the radishes to mature so I can pull them up and put the squash there.

I'm also going to plant Okra when it warms up a little more and once the cabbage and lettuce are done.

Hi - you're not too late. The people at my local nurseries all say we're still a little early on the tomatoes, but I just can't wait any longer. I'm planting tomorrow! :)

Woo Hoo ;-)

WOO HOO... The season is upon us.. WOO HOO ;-)

jonhughes - Your raised beds look so neat. Mine look like a mess. The asparagus pictures bring back memories of my dad's garden when I was a kid. Always loved the early spring asparagus. Never had success growing it here.

Everyone - good luck with your gardens. I am already planning my summer one. May is when I plant my tomatoes, peppers and squash.

Jon, I have picked 2 asparagus (asparagi?) and will pick another 5-6 in the next few days.Finally enough for a meal!
This is our first year of eating! I'm stashing them in one of those green bags that keep veges fresh for a long time (they really work!)
Unfortunately, only about 6 out of 12 lived through the last couple of years (I suspect critters). We planted 10 more 2 yr crowns a couple of weeks ago.
Happy gus eatin! Nancy

I planted lettuce, snow peas, carrots, radishes and swiss chard in late December. The radishes have grown and been eaten. The lettuce and swiss chard are still going and provide enough for salads every other day or so. The snow peas and carrots are still growing but it shouldn't be too much longer. I've also got cucumbers, honeydew melons, and yellow onions also growing now.

Tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant seedlings are ready for the garden. I am also growing marigolds this year in window boxes and putting those in and around the garden.
