I guess it is – or rather – the gardener is awakening! Because a good crop of herbs and vegetables was growing all winter long in our little garden. But today I started getting organized because there is lots to do, and I cannot wait to get going!
Young Foxglove plant
Thistle and Mullein 
An almost ready crop of Kale 
Andive
Much of my space is still taken up by winter vegetables but some of the beds are ready, one for potatoes, and another one for flowers, this season the emphasis is going to be on food for the insects, that is so important today.
Helleborus 
Primroses among the grass 
Oxallis
Oca is another crop I’ve tried over the last few years, not very successfully. 
Wild growing three cornered leeks 
Green leaved celery grows very well here during the winter 
Wild growing Cleavers in my garden
So yes there is lots going on even as early in spring as right now. We have enough food coming from the garden, and that helped me make the decision to grow a lot more flowers seeing that insect population is under such threat. But personally I am also very happy with this decision because I am very fond of flowers.
Grass needs cutting 
A few of the raised beds surrounds are in need of repair! 
I planted a Forsythia bush today!
