This past weekend I seeded in peas, lettuce, carrots, mustard, and radishes, taking up about 1/4 of the half barrels that serve as my raised beds. This weekend some more brassicas will join the mix (maybe some cabbage, but will save most of that seed for a winter crop; definitely some broccoli.) I'm really happy to start the new veggie garden, and am daydreaming of zucchini and tomato on the grill this summer.
I count my blessings that I garden in a maritime climate on the west coast, of North America, that my collards over-wintered and are delightfully frost-sweetened still. I don't think this will be the magical year that I get to eat something homegrown every day of the year (counting from May to May), but I don't doubt it will happen soon.
