The beautiful weather has given us a head start. Let's hope Jack Frost doesn't pay us a visit.

Strawberry Patch Etc






My strawberry patch is doing amazing. We won't have enough to sell this year, but I can't wait to eat them. The strawberries have been one of the easiest and most prolific things we have planted so far. Speaking of prolific, our rhubarb patch seems to be on steroids this year. We picked the patch about a week ago and it is huge again. If everything grew like rhubarb we wouldn't have a food crisis. The other two pictures are my chives and oregano. They along with the rhubarb were a nice surprise last year when they came up in the garden. The previous owner had not mentioned them, but we were very pleased they had planted them. It brings a smile to my face just to see the first signs of an impending harvest.
