Couldn’t Wait

I think my original idea was to try to limit gardening to Saturdays, at least until we had something to do outside (there’s still snow out there right now). But, we decided to continue planting like mad, because… well, because we can.

Charmaine pulled up a list of varieties of various vegetables that are known to do well in Utah, and we took a quick trip to Walmart. It’s not the best place to shop for garden supplies, but we gave it a try. Unfortunately, the varieties of seeds at Walmart didn’t match up with the list of known-good varieties from USU. We found a few from the list, and picked up a few varieties that we had luck planting last year. We also picked up a few more seed beds.

Then we went a little crazy.
