I decided to freeze some green onions. I think they are pretty hearty in cold weather, but froze some anyway.
We had two good garden days - tilled up more, decided to keep two raised beds, and rip out the other two, layered cardboard between them and piled it high with mulch the county workers left us from the tree they cut down.
Tilled even more, planted the radishes, carrots, beets, and green and wax beans. The kale bed is weeded. I just need to add some soil and get that planted.
Due to the weather my mini velociraptors were moved to the smaller coop finally. So glad to get them out of the house.
Whelp. I saw a raccoon for the first time in a few years. It came right up to the door looking for cat food. I'll be on the look out to see if it was passing through or hunkering down in a pile of old barn wood or in one of the barns.
They turned out nice after they dried, but they did not give off any aroma from the essential oils. You'd have to add a ton of essential oil to it, so I won't be making them again. It was fun to make, but disappointing it didn't work.
Rain is arriving soon. One rain barrel is already flipped over, and flowers have been moved outside to plant later. If the rain lets up to a light rain, I can start to harden my veggie plants today.

Shame about the shower bombs, trial and error. Rain and low temperatures here with morning frosts so not a lot getting planted out.
Our weather is finally beginning to warm and now of course we have rain and wind. It is okay though.
I'm surprised you can plant your green and wax beans already. I always have to wait until the soil has warmed up for them to germinate properly for me. And, of course, have to wait until the freezing nights are long gone! There's nary been one seed planted in my garden yet. :o( But I know it will happen. I just have to be patient!
mamasmercantile, I think we finally passed the last frost here
Carol we had rain and wind on Thursday here too
Mama Pea, we got up to the mid 70's on Thursday and we have passed the last frost now. Today high of 71 and in the 80's all next week.
