The first day of planting
The first day of planting

I started planting our vegetable garden today.  We still have a few snowbanks here and there, but our raised bed have dried out nicely. I cleaned up a few weeds, raked and planted the first five raised beds. I sowed seeds for lettuce, spinach, chard, collards, kale, carrots, beets, sugarsnap peas and dill.  It might not look like much now, but before you know it we’ll be harvesting baby greens!

In the front yard, the first sign of spring is a bunch of snowdrops at the base of the big maple tree.

Snowdrops are the first sign of spring!
