EARLY VEGETABLE GARDENING

February is the time to start planting your early vegetables. Click on this link for detailed information on Home Vegetable Gardening. Soon it will be time to start your seeds for your summer garden. You may be interested in expanding your gardening horizons by building a small greenhouse. Simple plans can be found at Backyard Greenhouses. If you want to make something on a smaller scale, watch this short video showing some simple Cold Frames which might work best for you. Won't it feel good to get out and dig in the dirt again?
