I’m daydreaming about an upcoming vegetable and flower garden after seeing so many supplies out in the stores already!
Hubby and I popped into Menards yesterday and while he was in the plumbing supplies I decided to wander the rest of the store to see if anything new was out. I have a confession we shop here several times a week for our business and ourselves so I’m pretty familiar with their supplies.
I was excited to see they have the gardening supplies out. Mainly seeds, seed starter kits, soils, and raised bed garden containers. It all got me thinking and daydreaming about gardening. We currently have snow on the ground so it’s for sure just a dream at this point in time.
Back in the day I used to start all my seeds inside under grow lights but as I get older I go for the lazier method and buy them as starter plants. I do sew some things from seed but I do it directly into the garden once the soil has warmed up. I’m planning on growing the same things that worked well in the garden last year, and you can see that here and here, and as of now I have no plans to add anything new.
Is anyone else looking forward to the growing season? Right now I’m longing for the day I can get my hands dirty again, fell the tender grass on my bare feet, and hear the birds chirping in the trees. As of now it’s all a dream but I know soon Mother Nature will change her course and spring will arrive once again.
Yes! I’ve ordered seeds like a madwoman and have purposely avoided stores that I know will have them out. For the first time, I forced paperwhite bulbs so that has to tide me over for a while.
Margaret, its so fun to force bulbs and yes it does get us by untill spring arrives.
I need to buy some seeds to get plants going.
Carol are you all healed and ready to garden again?
