Garden Notes

Things are finally starting to green up in earnest – here’s my garlic.     I was a little nervous – this is seed garlic I bought at the Bennington Garlic Festival.    I was pretty sure garlic from upstate New York by way of Vermont would be fine over here in Maine, but I was definitely happy to see how much of it did sprout.

Other than that, not much else happening in the community garden bed.    I did clear out the dregs of last year’s kale, and I will shortly be able to sow a few seeds directly.    The seedlings are coming along nicely inside, but they’re certainly nowhere near ready to go out.
