This is a journal of my vegetable gardens. Skippy was my first dog and he thought the garden was his, even though I did all the work. Now Suzie and Charley follow in his footsteps. We're located near Boston (USDA zone 6A). I have a community plot, a backyard vegetable garden, fruit trees, berry bushes, chickens, and bees. I use sustainable organic methods and do my best to grow all of my family's vegetables myself.
peas planted!

You sure have a lot of seedlings. I bet it will be a very good crop this year.
ReplyDeleteWow! I have to wait at least another month before starting tomatoes. Is Zone 6 really that different from Zone 5?
ReplyDeleteI think there can be a lot of differences even within zones. I'm planning to sow tomato seeds 6 weeks before the last frost this year. (Last year I tried a few at 10 weeks and they didn't do any better then the 6 week ones.)
ReplyDeleteMy sheltered home garden has its last frost usually around April 25. My community garden plot (one mile away) is very exposed and its average last frost is around May 10. So I should be planting them on March 29.
I'm so jealous! I would love to be planning my garden right now but we are moving this summer so I don't get to plant one this year.
