The bulk of this years’ seed orders are in. So that plus the old stock I kept should keep me very busy!! I doubt I have room for it all. A nice problem to have. 🙂

There are signs of Spring everywhere now. Sunny days are long. The trees are waking up too. This makes me happy.

And so after taking a year off from gardening, I went a little crazy with seed orders but I am essentially starting from scratch so now is the time.

Just wanna share some pictures of my Zone 4b (Minnesota) garden. Things are ramping up!

Wild and seed mixes in the oval garden. It’s mostly a flower garden but there’s horseradish, rhubarb, and tomatoes as well. The hives are just beyond the fence on the opposite side and the bees drink from the bird bath. The drilled barrel composts and feeds the garden, it’s especially effective when watered.

The last photos show progress since last summer.
