So the ground is covered with snow, the temp is 22f, the wind chill is obscene and what am I doing?
I am sorting seeds and checking the germination charts to get an early start on the tomatoes, peppers and okra!
This year the utility room will serve double duty as a greenhouse, complete with grow lights.
I intend to get a good harvest this year and have food coming in earlier than in the past. It drives me crazy being on the edge of a climate zone that throws me almost a month behind the harvest dates I grew up with.
50 miles south of me they harvest tomatoes by July 4, where I am it is usually the end of July before I get my first tomato and okra does not come in until mid August.
This year I intend to really overdo it!
