Is it spring already? I know it is just the middle of February, but I have flocks of fat robins pecking around in my yard. Who is confused? I'm not really ready to plant the garden yet, but I'm finding seed catalogs in my mailbox and in my email-box every day. Ok, Ok, I know the catalogs are the same ones as I perused last year, but they get me excited to try to make the garden better this year than last. And by the way, it is time to think about growing starts.

Thanks so much to the students in the horticulture class at Penn High School, we will have our starts ready for us when the weather really gets warm. They will plant, water and tend the seeds so that our garden will be full of healthy plants! Hopefully, a few of the students will stick with us throughout the growing season.

If you are a gardener or a wannabe gardener and would like to join our group at the SouthPaw Unity Garden, just contact us at SouthPaw Farm and we'd be glad to answer any of your questions. Now is a good time to start planning!
