Summer Spring in Kits

Last week...

This week...

Wow, the weather. Spring is most definitely here - every day at the garden brings a beautiful change to observe. The weeding of our perennial goutweed is a pleasure in this weather and with the sounds of the birds overhead. Those little birds with the spots seemed to have taken up residence in one of the birdhouses. Lovely. It's time to plant those peas, onions, radishes, lettuce and ? - will this wonderful heat lull us into a sense of security and make us plant more than is typical this time of year? Go ahead! You can always reseed if our bubble bursts.

Gorgeous lily - an appropriate treat this time of year

Manure the Motivator

The first work party of the 2013 season was a marvellous melding and mashup of many members motivated by the mound of manure and the myriad of must-do monkey business that makes our magical garden - well - magical. I will cease the magniloquent text and leave you with some shots from our sunny day. Capping it all off were the culinary treats provided by our local Kits Whole Foods (Capers) who have kindly agreed to another season of organic sustenance for our work parties. Happy spring gardening!
