Gardening

Things are coming along slowly here in northern New England. We've had some extremes of temperature, but that's just Spring I guess. I've got seedlings of lunchbox peppers, jalapenos, basil, nasturtium, and three varieties of tomato. One of today's tasks is putting cages around them all so the deer don't chomp them. I have seeds in for kale, hubbard squash, carrots, and perilla. The asparagus patch has been providing good harvest for a couple of weeks, oregano is coming back quite well, and chives very much too well - I'm overdue in wrangling that patch.
