OK the garden has been composted and fertilized, soil has been carefully worked with a cultivator, and I've got my herbs (basil, cilantro, dill and parsley) planted. I've got mint, too, but far too much of it. It has taken over a large spot. Also put in some Swiss Chard and - my favorite: lettuce! Romaine, Simpson, two kinds of Mesclun and I can't wait to dig into fresh salads again! The rest of the garden will go in on or around May 1st - zucchini, yellow squash, okra, eggplant, cucumbers and tomatoes. I love this time of year!
