And the first signs of future crops to come. These are 2 spinach sprouts, planted in mid-April on a warm summery day. Here they are stretching out their seed leaves, and just budding their true leaves after a few days of cold, rain, and even snow. My spinach came up quickly in last spring's cold wet weather too. I think the damp and frost must make them happy!
Turning black prairie soil into great tasting veggies! Hummingbird Garden is a community garden at the corner of 26th St and Maryland Avenue in Brandon. The gardeners come from all over the neighbourhood and a few from across town. Healthy Brandon supports our garden and links us to a network of gardens across our city.
