March Gardens, Let's Begin!

As March begins, we can't be sure if it's going to snow or rain but there are garden tasks for us to do. Snow has buried any sprouts peeking up from the ground but the good news is that the snow means more water availability come spring. As the days get longer there are indoor and outdoor garden preparations we can be doing now, including planting, pruning, and feeding!
