We turned over the soil this morning. There's some life in there already. Lots of worms, grass blades on bulbs and most importantly, chives. The chives are already on their way back. I thought swiss chard was the toughest garden plant, but these chives have just impressed me. I wonder when we will have enough to eat.
I am planning to put our onions out, as it sounds like it's not too early. They will be in a new spot between the rose bushes against the house, where they will get all day sun.
Research does suggest that I plant my seeds in a starter mix rather than soil. I guess I wonder why that's important if sowing them outside would be in soil? It will be Sunday most likely before I get out to grab starter mix, but that will still leave plenty of time for things to get started.
I'll get some pictures when I'm out later this afternoon.
