Snowy Gardens

Well, our spring break began two days early because of our blizzard. I liked Stef's photo's of the snow. Ours looked like that too! We have been getting snow every other day now. It is our own fault! Our stake had a fast for moisture because Denver is 50+ inches below the amount we usually get during the winter for summer water.

Stef, your garden may be fine depending on what you planted. Spring garden vegetables such as spinach and peas are happier if snowed upon. However, if you planted wimpy summer vegies like tomatoes, they may not survive. We'll see soon! I hope my garden is content under its blanket of white.

Well I'm pretty sure the tomato are dead, so we'll have to replant. Our onions and garlic are happily coming up and we hope our peas will soon follow!

I didn't know some veggies grew in the snow. Crazy! So that still must be exciting that your gardens are growing! wee!

I am hoping to finally start on my garden sometime sometime after next Friday. But I looked out this morning and my strawberries from last year are looking alive so that is fun!
