Garden still has about two feet of snow. Noticed one apple tree took some damage with the snow...the other tree is still buried. I like my garden and plant salad veggies, cukes, tomatoes, onions yellow white and purple, carrots several varieties, many varieties of cukes and tomatoes, too...several varieties of lettuce, yellow beans yum...green beans, did some pumpkins last year and got about 9 of them basketball size...zucchini always does well, broccoli, spinach, beets, peas. Pickle cukes, bread and butter pickles mostly...we also pick wild berries and make jam. Made about 50 small (6 oz) bottles last year this time, raspberry, strawberry, rhubarb and strawberry, blackberry. We do stuff w/the apples, apple sauce mostly, this pastry that I like to make kind of pie but a pastry. If you start your tomatoes inside, the plastic doughnut containers work well as a kind of miniature greenhouse...then when the plant has four leaves, you could transplant to cut-down milk jugs. What you do is cut a quart milk jug in half, slip the top half in the bottom half, maybe put some slits in the side, and water from below. Plant develops a nice thick stem, almost purple time you plant after Memorial Day. Salsa, too, from tomatoes and onions. Garden onions last a long time. Still have some in the fridge although you could leave carrots and other root crops in the ground and go out and dig them out (through too much snow) as you need them...nature's refrigerator...the snow protects them from freezing. Yellow squash, too...just thought of it. Mustard greens are delicious. Takes a lot to make a meal and you need to cut out as much vein when you clean them but they are delicious, put a little bacon in the mix. Did I say they're delicious? We have a patch of rhubarb, too.
