It's February!

Time for the seed catalogs to start coming.... and yes they have in larger quantities than I expected. We have a stash of seeds somewhere but Ren Man has stored them somewhere and I can't find them...

In January we set up the aero garden my dad bought us last March.
Ren Man has read reviews that the lights lose their growing power over time. Obviously we can't comment on that yet. We're growing herbs and this is what we have so far:

We had a February thaw which has been nice.
We were able to get a peak at our strawberry plants that have been burried in snow for the last few months.
(More snow is predicted to arrive this week.

We plan on growing corn behind the strawberries, wild flowers in the other half of our back yard (I've been begging for wild flowers since before we were married), and containers along the driveway. Our south facing side is the driveway, unfortunately, and last year we didn't do so well trying to grow things (like tomatoes) in partial shade. We've also purchased a CSA share from Ledge Ends Farm that we're very excited about.
It's our first time participating in a CSA.
And this is our compost in it's winter state. We've still been adding to it, usually, if we stand it, we try to wait for a milder day to add to the compost.
