What, no snow?

So, no snow. We can see the soil in the canoe garden again - and much of the soil around the school. Most of the soil at-grade will be too wet to work for a while, but our container gardens offer opportunities for sugar-snap peas - can you tell I love them? Our onions, garlic, cabbage, and swiss chard seem to have survived the blizzards. Oh, how will this constant sogginess affect them?

So you may have read about our mice saga within our seeds we are starting indoors. Mrs. Primm was watering this morning and found 2, two, 1+1, 5-3 mice LOUNGING, full and content, in one of the containers. Well, she pounced, and pounced again, catching the mice within the container and released them far away from the building...

Our herbs are rockin' and we can start to transplant next week. My, how will Manga Monday enjoy fresh herbs from our new plantings again! Our teaching kitchen is thriving (going on three years of education and inspiration) and we love to be supplying fresh, whole foods again from our own urban farm.

I saw a flock of Robins yesterday - spring must be coming soon - start to look for those crocus!!!!
