Happy New Year all! We got a lovely hard frost overnight that put down a thick layer of frost. Very pretty. I guess we'll be getting your weather tonight @jerryse. Snow then freezing rain. Happy it's not a big storm. I sent my snowblower off to have some well deserved attention so I'm crossing my fingers that we don't have a big snow storm within the next two weeks. I sat down yesterday and worked out a garden plan for this Spring. I found a more "local" seed vendor in Maine and am working on an order now. I will be using the link you posted @Acre4Me and see what their rating is. They are Pinetree Garden Seeds. Their prices seem reasonable, although the seed potatoes seem a bit high. They're about $11.95 for 2lbs of seed potatoes. Is that about average? I'm going to plant 3 rows of corn and some pole type lima beans in the backyard garden where I planted potatoes last year. I'll be buying grow bags for the potatoes and putting them on the south facing side of the house. I'm also planting a lot more carrots this year and switching from turnips, that never did all that well to the swede or rutabaga. Hoping to have better luck with them.
