This has been a good week for the garden -- temperatures in the mid 70s to 80. I think it's the first sign of spring that we've seen here in Western Washington.
I've got a decent amount of growth already the plants that survived the winter:
Strawberries:
Rhubarb:
Raspberries:
Onions and garlic:
Cherry blossoms in bloom:
Newly planted seedlings are doing well:
Broccoli:
Cucuzzi gourds:
Sweet corn:
And I found a few more spots to start growing food near my fence. I just put the seeds in this week, so it may be a while before we see anything come up.
