A New Season, and Atomic Gardening?

Hello friends!

We have almost unearthed ourselves from a very long winter up here in Minnesota.  The grow light is on in the basement and the cabbage, kale, lettuce, and tomatoes (among other things) are up and leafing out.  Buds are emerging on the trees and there is a good, soaking rain today that hope will really wake up the landscape! 

Until we have truly groundbreaking garden news (pun intended), here is an interesting bit of garden history my friend Liz shared with me.  Atomic gardening!  Seems scary now, but people really did think it was a good idea back in the day.  How far we have come...or rather, how we have realized that doing things the old-fashioned way are sometimes the best way to go.

Happy spring everyone!  More updates soon.
