Restarting the garden

55.6F and the ice is still here
I don't think I've ever seen snow last this long! Am I still in Virginia?!?


If there's still snow after today, hell has definitely frozen over...

solid ice may take a bit longer to melt than snow.

when i lived up north the shoreline of Lake Superior would build up piles of ice that could stick around into the summer months. one time kayaking along the shore there were piles of ice still melting under some trees on the 4th of July.

It's been 3 weeks.
It's snow and then slush on top.

Hot out!

Moved it in general place. Dead of winter is when I'll add fabric, pavers and pots.
Corn in current spot. Will move up and become larger.

I will flip the placement of corn and building. The original corn area is a water run off area, and I don't want all of the dirt and manure washing away again.

I'm trying to figure out which pests window screen will actually keep out. I'm thinking the cabbage worm might be able to get through, so it needs smaller mesh covers, but rest should be safe with new dirt?

Does anyone know??
