In the May garden...

May is a busy month around here. We're getting into full swing as we plan, plant and tend the garden...the early plantings in the garden are coming up: peas, mizuna, lettuce, spinach, asparagus, rhubarb, parlsey, dill, garlic, green onions, chives, kale, all the perennials and wild edibles (red orach, sorrel, nettle, lambs quarters, dandelion); fruit trees & berries are flowering: cherry, apple, currants, gooseberries, strawberries; greenhouse brimming with seedlings, just waiting for a few more weeks before tomatoes, peppers and eggplants can be taken outdoors...a lovely, busy, vibrant time these days.
