Happy St. Patrick's day 2012! In the green state of mind on my green garden blog let's take a first look at the green in the garden!Well, there's not much green yet, just some small strawberry plants and some garlic coming up that Kate planted last fall. Below the garlic is a thyme plant that is expected to come back. With the early Spring and great weather things may come together sooner than later, however. We didn't use as much hay to cover the strawberries this year, in fact we may not have needed to use any at all with such a mild winter. Other people have told me that they don't cover their strawberry plants and have no problems, but we still have about half the bag left so we will probably continue to use it.
Below is the whole thing, pockmarked by the damn squirrels digging around. They don't like the garlic but that doesn't stop them.
