On election morning, we woke up to our first frost of the season. Not a hard freeze, but a frost none the less. Some things suffer for that, but many cool weather and overwinter crops benefit. Just check out our bolting spinach - it has slllooowwwweeeedddd down.
We are going to have a warm up and that will benefit all of those last minute cool weather and cover crops we still want to plant.
We recently cut down and hung seeding plants like sunflowers, corn, and zinnias knocked down by Sandy for the benefit of birds. They, the birds, are thoroughly enjoying their bounty.
Friday we are going to try to plant about 700 spring bulbs for their beauty and bounty for humans and fauna alike.
I hope everyone voted today.
