Checking in on the garden stats. :)

Today I planted the first half of my veggies: potatoes, peas, radishes, parsnips, carrots, lettuce, spinach, dill, cilantro, soy beans, broad beans... I think that is all for this round.  I will finish up after the long weekend.

I transplanted the rest of my seedlings into bigger pots for the last week or two before they can go out to the garden.  Oh, I also found some sunflowers that were growing from last year.  I believe my son planted those for me! They were in the middle of a planter so I moved them to the back of a couple planters to open up the space for my veggies.

In the yard, my one pear tree is just finishing up blooming, as is my honeyberries.  My other pear is in full bloom! (Why did I not get photos today??)  My cherries are starting to bloom, the evans has not opened yet, the valentine, passion, and carmine jewel are about half opened.  My very heavy producing september ruby apples are taking the year off after a high yield last year.  My new apple, who's name I can not think of right now, is about to blossom in the next few days.  Currents are blooming, strawberries are blooming, raspberries are leafing out, and my yard is coming to life!

Oh! And today I started my straw bale prep.... yes, a little pate for those this year! Oops!  Will talk more of that next time!
