This spring has been very wet and warm, and the plants have taken notice. As I was walking through the home vegetable garden on March 31st I was pleasantly surprised at what I found. I went back inside to get the camera, because being from Minnesota you aren’t supposed to have fresh veggies in March. The following is a sample of what I found:

First up: Peppers!

Gypsy Peppers

Golden Treasure Pepper

Golden Marconi Pepper

Next comes the tomatoes:

Lots of tomatoes!

Early Girl (maybe?)

Lots of cherry type tomatoes

Our basil is doing awesome. We plucked some and made bruschetta for dinner last night.

Sweet Basil

A couple 65 gallon pots full of potatoes…

Potatoes

And of course no post would be complete without a picture of a chicken, who desperately wants to get into the garden and eat everything green.
