New Spring Garden

The first week of May seemed full of promise and hope as we emerged from a snow storm and blackout the previous week. This hope was nevertheless crushed with another three day snow storm that enveloped and pounded mercilessly.
I have planted potatos. And look forward to planting Hopi Blue corn, Ethiopian Blue tinge Wheat, Utrecht Blue Wheat, Kamut, hard white spring wheat and the rest of the garden.
These plans haunt my nights as I lay in bed considering growing sugar beets, black beans, snap peas, Russian Blue Potato, ....let's just say eventually I sleep well.
Pictures to come.
