First Turn Over for 2014
I finally was able to get into the garden for an initial turn-over. It was still a bit too wet on the lower half but I did have time to remove the straw from the strawberry beds and take down the winter tunnel. If it would have been a mild winter, we would have had some nice greens. Unfortunately that didn't work out. We even lost our entire rosemary bush. Surprisingly the Red Russian kale did partially survive so I left it in place to see how it develops over the next few weeks. At least now I have some real estate to get in some of the seedlings that have been stacking up due to the extended cold spell.
Two months and counting to strawberries !
And the chicken tractor is nearing completion in time for the May arrival of the pullets. Here is the completed pop door.
