preparing for spring!

I have never had much luck with seed starting but I am well on my way to a batch of tomato plants from Nonno's garden




Seed set up is getting larger as the seedlings come up. First I start them in the pizza box with organic starter. When they come up I spoon them out into egg containers. Seems to be working well except the egg containers wick the water out faster then plastic trays. I just have to stay on top of the moisture situation.


preparation for our new cut garden in the shape of a spiral inspired by our children's  advent garden in the winter.  

Flower seeds growing.  My list is enormous. But here are only two types

Wish us luck!!
