After a very snowy winter its gardening season again! Here’s what I’ve been planting/harvesting:
- asparagus (we’ve been harvesting this like crazy and I’m not sick of it yet.)
- tomato (One new girl, one NE wedding, one purple variety, and one yellow cherry. No salmonella.)
- eggplant (6, oriental expresss)
- yellow squash (why isn’t it coming up yet?!)
- zucchini (why isn’t it coming up yet?!
- spaghetti squash (2, for Bryan)
- buttercup squash (2)
- pumpkin (4)
- watermelon (2)
- cantaloupe (2)
- pole beans
- pickling cucumbers (4)
- peas
- cabbage (6)
- chard
- lettuces (romaine, mescaline, buttercrunch)
- beets
- carrots
- radishes
- peppers (bell and hot)
- garlic
No broccoli this year– we got too grossed out last year by the worms! We have planted four Hops plants for Bryan’s brewing (although we probably wont be able to harvest this year). I moved my herb garden to the bed in front of the house (after Bryan dug out many many rocks), and am growing thyme, basil, sage, oregano, rosemary, chamomile, catmint, lemon verbena, echinacea, bee balm, parsley (container), mint (container), and maybe others I can’t remember. They are all still small and trying to get established, but I have high hopes. The hydrangeas seemed to have over wintered. I planted some sunflowers by the fence line about two weeks ago, but have not seen any shoots. I really have no idea what I am doing when it comes to flowers, but I am trying.
