Description
As Spring comes to the farm (with another snow storm too) we took a walk around the propery at the end of March to try and come to grips with what this late Spring means to our garden plans. We discuss the winters impact on our plans and the things we typically got done that are not on the to-do list.
We also talk vegatable gardens - specifically what we have been doing with regards to seed starting and preparing the greenhouse. Speaking of the greenhouse, we talk about the issues the cold weather has spawned and some solutions we are considering.
