Wind chill, cold and.....flowers!

3.18.17 It’s cold up here in Vermont recently – today a high of 7 degrees with a wind chill advisory for 25 below. The chickadees and finches are all puffed up and filling up on suet and black oiled sunflower seeds. Despite the cold outside, I’m pouring over seed catalogs, looking for flowers to fill the new beds at Squabetty. With a new grow lab system, I’ll be starting the seeds inside so I can transplant over Memorial Day, when it’s safe to put plants out here in Northern Vermont. Looking forward to warmer days.
