dude. last spring i planted rosemary, oregano and mint in a little planter on our patio. um, i may have a black thumb, because only the mint survived, and i hear mint is just resilient like that. i want to plant things, really, i do, it’s just that the only thing that has survived my lack of gardening skill are a couple of succulents. again, i hear you could abuse them miserably and still they thrive, so, go figure.

and what’s worse is that i live in *california* and everything grows here, blah blah. you see?

but who knows? maybe i can try again. i was just looking at the neglected box of old dirt yesterday and shaking my head. . .

i do love spring. these photos are amazing. the first one looks like your man coulda painted it. xo

How about this is the year I get to CREATE my garden space? I just ran to the local hardware store for lumber and stakes for the new garden bed. Or two. Haven’t decided yet. 🙂

We’ve been teased with some lovely high 60 degree weather this past week. Spring has sprung, but I am sure that winter will throw one more snowball on us. It’s still early.

Count me in!!

As for spring, it greeted us with rain/ice/snow here in the Chicago burbs. And? I don’t mind! I LOVE the change of seasons … even if they seem to be a little behind.

PS- The pics in this post, just awesome!

i want to do it!
i’m torn though, because i hear that i have to build a raised bed here, because the soil is full of lead because of the big fire in 1930. BUT…I’m planning to do a big overall of my front / outdoor space some time this summer / next year. so i dont want to create my garden raised bed, only to have to destroy it when i’m redoing my space. hmmm. thoughts?
i do have some lovely crocuses sprouting tho. I’ll send you a picture. also i will call you back tomorrow!
love you

Love High Mowing, never bought seeds from them though (so many great little companies around). I just ordered a bunch of seeds from Sand Hill Preservation, lovely old timey place (no ordering on-line *gasp*).

I’m so excited for spring, I’ve been out working in the garden trying to make good use of these nice warm days.

AND Happy Spring to you to Burb! I talked to your dad last week about my garden idea….I’ll save it for your button….xoxo

Okay, Nic. I’m going to do it! I’m going to have to plant something portable, since we’ll be all over hill and yonder this summer. Basil is going to have to be it.

I hope that was ‘famous-for-thirteen-years’ chowder… ; )

and finally, GASP! I’ve never seen a photograph that better captures the mood and depth and color and mystery of my home than that last one you posted. Oh my, you’re gifted.

ps….. Gorgeous photos….

wow, that first picture should be on a postcard for montana! good luck with your seeds, i only wish i had a green thumb

I am very impatient to garden this year. Fixing some mistakes from last year, growing some new things, getting Avery all excited for our “garden in the summer”. Count me in!

Happy Spring! I am in for the challenge. Last year was my first ever garden and this year I am challenging myself to all sorts of first! Looking forward to participating and looking forward to warmer weather.

Great photos!

I’m doing it! We cleaned out our flower bed yesterday, finished off the other edge of our garden. Calling Eco-Compost today and filling that raised bed. We got a handful of seeds yesterday and we’re gonna do it, fer reals! Simon and Gus are all excited! As long as we can keep the chickens out. How do you do that?

Well, you already know about my new things that will be growing alongside all the old favorites.

Especially that one new thing that looks like the result of a particularly nasty STD.

Ah, the joy and wonder of gardening 😉

Here’s to spring!

Oh, you inspired me even more!!! I have about a 8×8 patch of dirt on a patio and i am bound and determined to grow some yummy stuff!! I keep putting off going to get some gardening stuff, but i shall go this week, thank you : )

Anne! You know it! I love love Bridge Creek Backcountry Kitchen and Wine Bar Chowder! I’ll always know how long it’s been famous too…cause it’s the same number of years I’ve been with Andy…we fell in love the year clam chowder was revolutionized
