Memorial Day may be an unofficial kickoff for summer for the rest of you, but here it was pretty much just kicking off spring!! Everything except my onion plants, potatoes, and some dill that came up volunteer from last year, is still in the greenhouse... but at least most of the trees have (small) leaves now! We are a good month behind our normal seasonal progression, which is late by most standards to begin with.

Terri, I'm sure you can still plant beans, they can be "succession planted" throughout the summer.

Our high temps for the next week are supposed to be in the mid to high 50s. So, in another week or so I will plant my beans (started in the greenhouse), my tomatoes and peppers, and protect them with "floating row cover" or, in the case of the tomatoes, by wrapping plastic around the cages. Somehow, everything seems to manage to produce for us before the end of the growing season!
