Freeze warning


We appear to have survived a freeze warning last night by covering our sensitive plants with drop cloths. This weekend we built two more garden frames and planted one. So we have four frames in production and one awaiting groundhog protection before planting. We harvested a loose packed gallon of lettuce and spinach.

I think I have the design for the garden frames worked out, so will be posting some instructions and pictures soon. Another freeze warning tonight, that should be the last of them...

In the photo of the new garden above, my eldest daughter planted from seedlings everything except the beets and carrots. The beets and carrots were moved from the first frame where more than one plant sprouted in the same location. Pictured are four tomatoes, four basil, two green peppers, six parsley and two marigolds.
