So this is the weekend where I am ordering seeds. This picture was taken a previous year. I use an old baby changing table which works perfectly in my sunny dining room. This year I'm changing up my seeds a bit, using more heirloom seeds to see if my tomatoes will be even more flavorful. I'll still get the salsa and roma tomatoes but will definitely throw in a couple more varieties. All the seed catalogs have a variety of lettuce where it's easier to pick large clumps, so I definitely want to try that variety. I'm going to have to replenish my "Mel's mix" in my beds, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my source of coarse grained vermiculite is still open. You never know with the crazy economy! Before it gets nice out, I hope to have the beds replenished. I also hope to be on top of things so I can get early season veggies planted so I can enjoy the fruits of my garden as early as possible!
I would also like to grow strawberries this year......and am trying to figure out where I could put them. I think I would like a mini raised bed. I've seen those circular terraced ones which would be really cool. I could have strawberries on one level and then maybe move some of my herbs and have them on another level. I have a picture in my mind, but unfortunately I don't have a rabbit solution for that type of bed. Hmmmmm.....There must be some way. I also am pretty sure we have skunks living behind us still. It's hard to believe we're in suburbia with all of this wildlife!!!
Happy planning to everyone!
