Garden Fuss

I am so excited and passionate about our 2010 garden.  After such a hard winter my daughter and I are so ready to get started with everything. But alas we had to slow ourselves down and begin the process of planning and now executing our plan for the upcoming season. First we started out by creating a list of inventory. Our inventory consisted of 1 through 3 year old vegetable and flower seeds. The seeds that were past expiration were tossed and the remaining seeds were categorized by type and the dates we can start them in-doors.  We then purchased new heirloom seeds locally from Mother Earth Garden Center and mail order from RH Shumway.

Now that we are finished and the first small load has been cleaned and dried we are so ready for relaxation. But of course the garden calls. The celery seeds have just joined the leek seedlings in the tank. I am so excited because we have baby leeks popping up in all their containers. This adrenalin rush won't last though so now I'm planning bath and bed. Where are my new ParkSeed Magazines?
