Greetings fellow gardeners and an official welcome to spring! The weather is still on the cold side, but that will change in the weeks ahead. I have not been as active in the garden as I would have liked, just too many other projects taking up my time. I will be at the garden Friday and Saturday. I would like to start to set up the beds for planting. Move the picnic tables around and just tidy things up a little. I do have some plants I may put in the ground Saturday in my experimental beds. But we shall see what we get done first. Next Saturday I will not be in the garden but will continue to work during the week to set up as many beds as I can for the 13th. Our first official planting day. I have 2 flats of cabbage in my basement started and I will be starting some tomatoes and zinnias this weekend.
The garden lost a friend this past week. Glenn Fredrick passed away after a long fight with ALS. Glenn often worked in the garden with Hiram Hershey during the week. Glenn would always help Hiram tend to our tomatoes. After he could no longer work in the garden, Glenn still kept in touch with me with encouraging e-mails and suggestions. I know he enjoyed these garden updates. When Lory and I moved into our house, Glenn's Dad still lived down the street. He always had a nice garden. Blessings and prayers to Glenn's family.
