Spring is in the air!

I have tried to grow strawberries for the past 3 years.  Each time we get small little berries from the dozens of plants we put in…I dream of making strawberry jam (my favorite) and having an abundant crop, but each year I lose that battle.

I am trying a few new techniques this year and have planted 24 plants amongst our compost.  Fingers crossed!

Spring seems right around the corner.  Days are getting longer and annual gardening tasks are starting back up.  As my mom notices the start to crisp mornings in New York, I am revelling in the warmer and sunnier afternoons here.

Bring on summer!
