I love enthusiastic workers! Looks like they are ready to get into some serious gardening! The chickens are great halpers too. Nice that the weather is finally starting to come around. Can't wait to see the gardens this year!

The boys'll be planting lettuce with me next week, sooooooo good to be getting growing again.
The winter has been too darned long...
What's it like living somewhere that you can grow year around?
I have been successful in almost what Canada considers three seasons. When dry season stretches to seven months, the last few months are brutal to get anything to grow unless we water constantly and even then it might not be enough. We have luck with lettuces, tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers, the basic blah salad. I do love the fact that we don't get snow and the rainy season is a favourite because everything is so green and fresh. By the end of the dry season, we are praying for rain. Perhaps you can imagine what the countryside looks like after that long with no rain...
Ahhh I get it, so in effect that is your winter. No where on earth gets away scot free!!
Nope! Every place on earth has its own variety of warts...
