Getting ready for spring

It's seed ordering time!

I've ordered my potatoes and seeds from Fedco Seeds and the seeds have arrived.  We're not doing a CSA share this year, so I have some more variety.  Much more carrots, beets and lettuces.  Fewer tomatoes... maybe.  More beans then last year.

I've got an idea to put the plastic & cloth down faster.  I'm going to use 5' of strapping with a hole through it for a 1' spike (rebar) to hold it down.   It should be faster & hold better then landscape staples.

For some winter relief, here's some pics of the garden bunny that samples my veggies.  I was able to get within a few feet.


The bunnies run through the holes in the fence w/o stopping.  Luckily, they don't eat much.
