Well last weekend it felt as
though spring had come early; the sun was shining and I was out in the garden continuing
my project. As you are all aware, this year, my goal is to grow as much fruit
and vegetables as I possibly can. Next year, I would like to try and grow
everything for myself, if I can’t grow it, I can’t have it; but that is a long
way off and let’s take one step at a time.
Last weekend I managed to
finish the three raised beds in the vegetable section of my garden. I also
managed to complete one compost bin and started the frame for a leaf mould bin.
It was a good productive weekend and I felt invigorated and excited about the
coming seasons. I could not wait for this weekend to arrive, as I work all week
and there is not enough light on week nights to get out in the garden.
However, much to my dismay;
when I woke up this morning, a thick layer of snow was on the ground and there
was thick snow falling. My excitement dissipated and worry started to set in; I
am running out of time to get jobs finished. Also my Rhubarb crowns arrived
yesterday and they need to go into the ground!!!!!!
Oh well, I suppose there is
nothing I can do. I do have an outhouse, so I may go and do some more woodwork
today out of the cold, trying to get as much done as possible to make my life
easier. I also have some more seed planning to complete; so it could be a day
by the fire with a cuppa and a pencil and paper; we will see.
Anyway before I go I will
leave you with a few pretty pictures. Snow is very picturesque but it is a pain
in the backside!!!
