Hello Friends,
It is that time here in Wisconsin.
It will be planting time very soon.
Some things can be planted already, like lettuce and spinach.
We have experienced some very warm days here in Wisconsin. A bit too warm for our neck of the woods for early May. All of a sudden, Spring is bursting and going very quick.
The following photos are of our garden at the Community Gardens last summer.
The gentleman who started the Community Gardens is in his late 70's. He has been heading up the Community Gardens for all this time.
This Spring he asked for help from your family.
We are excited to volunteer. The Community Gardens are free to use for anyone that is willing to keep a garden. Water is provided for free, composting piles and tilling the garden at the beginning of the season.
We are happy to give back to something we have enjoyed.

Saturday morning we will be helping stake off the garden plots.
I am looking forward to volunteering with the care of the Community Gardens.

Last Spring...that is me...with my four garden plots...cheering that I got them all planted.
The fun will start all over again in a week or less.
Come back for a visit on Monday, I will have a special announcement regarding
The Little Garden That Could.
Have a great weekend!

So happy your weather is cooperating for earlier planting. I imagine you guys will have sore muscles for a day or two from all the bending. Looking forward to your announcement. Happy Mother's Day.

We don't plant a garden here, but I love home grown veggies!!! Community gardens are a good thing. I am looking forward to planting some flowers. Here, next to Lake Michigan, we are chilly. :-( I hope it warms up soon.........I wanna get out!!!
ReplyDeleteYou will have a beautiful crop this summer. I live in an apartment and miss planting flowers.
ReplyDeleteI usually wait until Memorial Day weekend to plant my annuals and veggies (even down here in the Madison area), but this year I will start earlier. The soil is so warm, and we don't have frost in the forecast. Yay! Enjoy! (Cute photos.)
ReplyDeleteOh this is so good to read.
ReplyDeleteI am sure your planting will bring some lovely food / plants.
Enjoy your weekend
All the best Jan
