Mary, Mary, quite contrary. How does your garden grow?

I had plans to write posts before seeds went into the ground, but alas, life while socially distancing got busy and took off on me. 

I wish I could report that the extra time spent at home meant that my home was decluttered, organized and spotless. 

That is not the case. 

Spending more time at home, all the time, translates into more messes.

So that will be something I will need to work on soon! 

I did lose track of my gardening posts too. 

I will continue my posts on veggies and share what I do know, but for now...how is it going?

I wanted to write to just say how proud I am of all of those new gardeners out there!  You will love eating food that you grew yourself.  (Tonight, we are actually eating our own asparagus...there isn't much, but it will still be yummy!)

You are likely to hit hurdles. 

You can't control the weather. 

Weather is a variable that will affect your yield. 

Be easy on yourself. 

All of my potatoes died this year because I put them out too early.  And I am an experienced gardener. 

You are doing a great job! 

Keep going.  (And keep growing)

And learn, learn, learn.  You can ask me if you have any questions.  I would be happy to help. 

So how is your garden growing?
