Is the snow melting in any areas yet? What about Larry's veggie garden in PA?......We have had a very mild winter in Northern Ireland and now is the time to clear out the garden in preparation for this years crop. Very little left except for some swedes (turnips),carrots, parsnips, leeks and, believe it or not, the brocolli that should have been pulled up and chucked on the compost heap, is sprouting again! Today I pulled some swedes for my old mother to prepare for freezing.....
I also pulled some parsnips, look how dirty they are due to the heavy rain we had last night! The large parsnips are all used up, these are just the right length for getting out of the ground without breaking!!
And these are the very last of the carrots, We have plenty frozen to keep us going until the new crop arrives.
I was just checking the other day, and this time last year I had potatoes planted, Our ground is just too wet this time......Sam
