Starting my garden

Croix is here helping me plant beans. We planted 6 rows of beans this year hoping for a good crop so I can can and freeze for the rest of the year. I would like to sell some things at the farmers market too but we will see how much we have. We also planted carrots, zucchini, corn and snap peas by seed and some strawberry roots. I am waiting for a couple of weeks before I buy and plant the rest of my plants. I don’t want anything to freeze. I am getting a little nervous because my apple tree is coming back to life a little to fast. I am just hopping that the blossoms don’t come to quick I am don’t want to have those freeze and then we will not have any apples this year. That would just not be good.

So I think I got a little ahead of myself planting flowers this year. I was so excited to have some color outside. I have just had to cover them on some cold nights and bring in my pots but I have flowers!!
