These cold winter days don’t allow for much gardening time. Like many of you, I’ve been considering the possibilities that spring planting offers lately, particularly as seed catalogs pile up and lure me into their pages with colorful spreads of summer’s bounty.
Last week, it was warm enough for bees to fly. I went out back without the restrictions of a heavy coat, feeling as light and carefree as my honey bees navigating and searching for any available food sources. I let the chickens out, watched my honey bees flying for a while and considered garden options for the spring. I even brought a nice cup of hot tea outside, sweetened with my girls’ honey, of course.
