If you come home from work and your chickens are perching on your 'tater tires. (from last spring)
The temperatures have perked up a bit and I'm thinking about the garden. I've been too ambitious the last couple of years. I planted by looking through seed catalogs and ordering "pretty" or "yummy." Overall, I've not had a good year yet.
This year I'm trying to be smarter. I want to plant what will thrive and what I would pay too much for at the market. This rules out carrots, taters, squash, and others.
I think I'm going to focus on greens, but I also want to plan things that fruit.
Anybody dreaming about spring? What are you planting this year? Making any big changes from other years?
