What's Cropping Up in Your Garden

We're finally getting most of our planting done. My vintage trolley cart helps me transport things around in style. We always have to make adjustments to our crops as we learn. More onions and garlic this year, as ours only brought us through January last winter. We try to live on our garden for as long as we can. What's your favorite garden crop?

The Great Garlic Scape

The summer solstice is right around the corner, which means the garlic in the garden is ready to give us a little preview. Here come the garlic scapes! For the next week, maybe two, each garlic plant will produce a single flower stalk, which begins as a tender, green shoot, and grows long and curly. If picked before the stalk gets tough, scapes are a delicacy, with a milder garlic taste than the bulbs. Gardeners need to clip the scapes off to keep energy going to the bulb anyway, so the dozens of dishes we can make with the scapes—pastas, salads, omelets, soups—is a huge bonus. And if you're not growing garlic in your garden (maybe you will now!) you can usually find scapes in farmers' markets seasonally.

Chicken Wire Cloche for Plant Protection

I have one garden that the cats love to sleep in. It's just outside the kitchen and mudroom door, so I think it makes them feel safe.

This Chicken Wire Cloche, from Farmhouse Wares, is perfect for protecting my delicate astilbe, which is just waking up from its winter nap.

It's safe to say spring has sprung

We have had such a long winter season that I've been afraid to mention the word "spring" for fear I would jinx it and a blizzard would ensue. Just yesterday it was cold and only 47 degrees. Today looks promising, and I’m starting to see my gardens bloom, but shhhh, don’t let anyone know that spring has finally sprung.
