Winter gardens
March 17, 2018
We have a good start for our gardens. It’s kindda like a double edge sword in the high desert we are at 2695 eleavation and our farm is in the north end of our valley so we get cold even freezes but it also zooms from winter to heat very little spring.
We have to plant early and protect the sprouts by covering at night and uncovering in the day sunshine, what happens is some of the cool plants like peas, beans, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts need time in the cool weather but we risk freezing them by planting to early. Sometimes we win and sometime we loose some plants always a challenge that we love.
