We had our first real frost last night. Any lingering squash or tomato plants were starting to liquify this morning as the morning sun thawed them out. And yet, a few hardy plants can survive. Onions, kale, peas, carrots, spinach, celery, oregano, thyme, parsley, rosemary, and garlic were looking hardy this morning. I even planted some new Spanish garlic that I picked up (I wanted to make sure to have a large enough crop!).
I need to get busy weeding and spreading mulching-leaves. Alas, it's COLD out there! I love my garden, but I have chilly children to consider. I'll get it done, it just may take a bit of time.
peas and celery did NOT make it through winter
