General Discussion / Re: What did you do in the garden today ?
« Last post by woodchip gardener on Today at 07:55:29 AM »gymgirl. you are a sweet lady for doing beets for your friends to enjoy 
i am sorry you had to work so hard at it.
today i went out and started to pull some of my spinach plants. i was out yesterday cutting some to use for dinner and i noticed a few that were just starting to form flowers. it was 80 here during the week and it must have set them off. i cut some, put it into baggies and sent some in to school with my little one for her teacher. the rest i will wash and freeze.
the kiddo was very excited because she found a little green strawberry on the plant. she said she will check every day to see if she can eat it yet. lol.

« Last post by Rabbitproof on Today at 07:47:11 AM »Wow...thank you Woodchip, but my elderly neighbor across the street said the other day she would give me some bulbs soon when she thinned. I was just wishing I had saved my Mom's bulbs, because they were hers....nostalgia!! The elderly neighbor is the one who has the pink hued Dogwood....which reminds me I need to call the County Agent about that....been too busy to do. Thank you again so much for the offer!!!
