OK, we've had our snow, icy roads, and frigid cold. I'm done with winter. Bring on spring.
I made my list, checked it twice, and sent in my order.
Bought a lot of my old favorites and added some new vegetables. Cherokee Purple is an old Cherokee heirloom tomato, pre-1890. Also trying Tomato Blue Berries which are rich in anthocyanins due to their dark purple color. Komatsuma is an Oriental green good for stir-frying or salads, Shoigon, a small Japanese mild-tasting turnip that I prefer sliced in salads instead of cooking them, and Crosby's Egyptian beets are a few of the new seeds for this year's garden. My brain is hyped and each time I walk down to the compost pile with the kitchen peelings, I can visualize the bare clay clumps and the rocks that I'll pick out again and my mushroom compost in the wheel barrow reading to enrich the garden.
