A wealth of delicious greens on the 5th of January! In addition to what is pictured here, we have collards, several varieties of kale, beet seedlings, plus patches of baby lettuce and arugula. We've been lucky … AND spoiled! Recent mild winters, in conjunction with the use of light-weight row covers, have allowed fresh greens to survive and thrive in our garden, even in the bleak mid-winter.
But the polar express is paying us a visit this week. With temperatures expected in the single digits there's not much hope for these crops … even under cover.
