Spring in Swing

Though I’m hedging my bets on the last frost, the warm weather we’ve enjoyed lately has gotten the trees blooming and the perennials sending up shoots. My potatoes will be in the ground this week, as will my other usual spring vegetables: peas, lettuce, chard, and for the first time, arugula. My broccoli, lettuce, and chard lasted over the winter, though the peas suffered from frost.
What edibles are you planting right now? What winter crops are you still harvesting?

    In Friday’s Garden section of the Press-Register, Bill Finch writes that peas and leafy greens should be planted this weekend or next at the latest, whereas it’s still too early for tomatoes and peppers.
