Got out in the garden and started planting today! apx dozen sugar snap and lincoln shelling peas in the ground. Will wait until they sprout before planting more. Forgot to soak them, but the ground is good and damp (not wet) and we're expecting rain tonight followed by a few days of sun. Perfect.
My raised bed seems to have survived the winter quite well. Just took off the layer of mulch and tilled up the top few inches. Looks like all my garlic has sprouted, and the strawberry is coming back too.
Next up: beets and early greens in a couple weeks.
