Mid-May Planting

Well, we noticed the pages of the calendar are flipping over at a pretty good clip and figured that if we want to eat any veggies from our garden this year, we better get them going. We're not at all sure that "all danger of frost has past" since it did dip below freezing just a couple days ago. So we covered some of the newly-planted seeds with a hoop house, and started some other things in a cold frame.

Cold frame starts include several types of summer squash, cauliflower, summer savory, tarragon, endive, baby leeks, and kale.

Direct sown under the hoop house: arugula, beets, daikon, mizuna, radish, and broccoli-raab.

Near the trellises at the far end (in a former iteration, these were Halloween decorations), we planted snap peas and snow peas.

The pot in the foreground contains an edible flower blend.

Ruby's been working hard, too.
