With the Light Just Right

Here the dogwoods are almost done blooming and the tree canopies look fuller and fuller with each passing day.  We are continuing to put our spring starts in the ground at a rapid rate, trying to keep up with the turbo spring this year which seemed to become warm all of the sudden.  I am enjoying the break in warm temperatures with this nice and brisk weather.Today we planted buttercrunch lettuce and swiss chard.  With the morning sunlight shining on them, the light was just right.  Maybe it was the cooler temperatures, but this morning our garden was particularly beautiful.  We got a great haircut yesterday, trimming back some of our unruly clover, and all around our garden everything is turing a wonderful spring green. Thanks to handy google spreadsheets Michelle set up, the past couple of weeks we have been carpooling a number of new friends and garden enthusiasts each morning.  People can sign up on which morning they can come, and we take turns driving out to Morven.  It's working really well!  I'm really excited to have so many new faces out in the garden.
