Well, maybe - just maybe, the snow cover on the garden will vanish this weekend. Ground hasn’t seen sunlight since early January.
I have been working at clearing out hundreds of broken tree limbs from a wind-screen of white pines... Limbs up to 14-15” in diameter. So there is lots going on.
Peas are already a week behind on getting planted - along with kale, spinach and others. Potato planting should begin around March 15, but doesn’t look like it will happen on time this year.

Hope all is going well for everyone else.
