Lily's Garden

Its that time of year again....Lily and I have our seeds started for the garden.  Our early starts include tomatoes, jalepenos, egg plant, cilantro, basil, and new for this year kale and tomatillos.  I've already used "big yellow" to till the "English Garden" once....the name given to our garden in the JC.  It'll get another round or four of tilling before we are ready to put everything in the first week of May.
 
Before that though, we'll put the kale out next week.  Kale likes the weather a bit cool and is frost resiliant....so we'll see how that goes.

Lily and I just couldn't handle being so far from our garden this spring, so we decided to use the beautiful dirt around one of the trees in the back yard to make a small raised bed.  We've got a few kale seedlings in it right now....hopefully squirrels like kale less than bird food!
