I don’t know what the weather is like where you live but this week has felt more like summer than spring!
We went from cool temperatures to the high 70s and even low 80s! I do love this time of year, no bugs yet! We were able to sit outside and enjoy our first dinner on the deck!
Our chickens also enjoy this time of year as I let them free range.
They like to keep a close eye on the raised beds just in case something is coming up! As soon as the garden is planted the chickens will be fenced in once again. You’ll notice the garlic is coming along nicely.
I haven’t gotten anything planted in the garden yet. I know, I’m late with planting peas but I’ve only been home for two weeks! It’s such a busy time of year. I did make a stop at the garden center for some pansies!
There are signs of life outside despite the crazy temperatures! The daffodils are finally blooming, don’t you just love the miniature daffodils?
The rhubarb will be ready to pick in no time!
We still have wood clean up that needs to take place from the logging operation. Look how close they came to my garden! the loggers will be back soon to do their cleanup! We had put stakes up to mark the edge of the garden and they did quite well in respecting the boundaries!
There is also gravel to be raked out of the perennial garden. I really think there may be more gravel in the garden than in the driveway!
Inside my seedlings are growing like crazy and have just about outgrown their grow table, won’t be long before they get moved outside.
It is such a joy to see the signs of spring everywhere. I hope you take time to enjoy this special time of year!
