Spring peepers tonight

I was pleased to hear spring peepers calling at dusk. I found garlic, onion, kohlrabi, kale, turnip, and carrot growing in my neglected gardenbeds.

ice and snow at Roserock

Yesterday we had freezing rain in the morning which turned to sleet in the afternoon. Today the snow is accumulating rapidly. I haven't gone anywhere!

carrot

I checked my garden today to see if anything was still alive. I harvested one purple carrot, which I added to my soup of otherwise storebought ingredients. There is another carrot that is alive, hiding underneath the mulching leaves. There are two kale plants hanging on.
