Under the tarp: collard greens, chinese kale & a beet plant or two. The collards have been doing the best, chinese kale sort of ok and I think only two beets came up & are not growing. I planted about 1.5 - 2 months late, but I just couldn’t stand bare dirt after I cleaned the garden out. The ground is now frozen here so I’m thinking the plants won’t make it ... but we’ll see. Gives me something to mess around with outside. Recently, it was decided that a 10 year old pile of yard debris should be moved and instead of hiring somebody else using a “Bobcat”, I’m the one who will be doing the digging. I’m hoping to find some good compost near the bottom - plan to expand the garden for next year with at least one, perhaps two 6 x 6 plots. Come on Spring!! :-)
