Tomatoes

Spring is getting closer.  Our zone 4 last frost date is still 3-4 weeks away but the grass is green, the first of the perennials are coming up  and the trees are staring to leaf out.  Much of the next few days have overnight temps yet in the low 30s.   I have mowed once and I have been spending some time in the greenhouse working with the vegetable plants--transplanting and haircuts.  I am pleased with their progress.  We have not had a lot of really sunny days so it has been a blessing not having to try and cool the greenhouse so as to not cook the plants.
9 varieties of tomato plants
herbs

the sage is blooming
 It will soon be time to get the farmstand down to the end of the driveway to try and sell some of the surplus plants. 

I love spring.

    1. It is fun to have seasons that change and they all have some pros and cons although there seems to be fewer cons with summer.
