Gardener Wannabee

Today when Denise and I were at the garden we met a very fun gardner wannabee. He wants a plot so bad but we told him he'd have to wait until he was 18 to get a plot of his own.



He loves vegetables so much he was eating Swiss chard, spinach and pak choy fresh out of the garden.

Before he left he drew two hearts for Denise and I, and then drew 2 more hearts for all the other people who garden with us.

Artic Chill Coming

Warning, warning!

If you still have anything that you want to protect, we are going to have another week of very cold temperatures.  Actually, it will be a week of temperatures that will cause the plants whiplash. Pleasantly warm in the middle of the afternoon some days with below freezing temperatures in the dark hours.

Remember that with the high winds the windchill will make it even colder for the plants. If you cover, be sure your cover isn't touching your plants. This will help prevent burned plant parts.
