So it's begun.
I've already started some seeds: carrots, radish, beets, turnips, pumpkins. And I've planted some plants: squash, cucumber, tomatoes. But this year, rather than use up valuable top soil, I planted my potatoes under hay. A very good friend of mine, Dan, who is originally from Idaho (or is it Ohio... ;)... suggested it. He said, "that's how they do it there"... The best part is, you can just move the hay away from the potatoes to see how they are doing and see if they are ready to eat!
Next to the potato patch I'm planting pumpkins! This is going to be a fun summer!
