Book Review: The Comic Book Guide to Growing Food
If you’re new to gardening, starting a garden can be quite intimidating. The learning curve can seem steep and the barriers to enty can feel vast. Having a beautiful, productive garden like those you might see around your neighborhood can seem like an unreachable goal.

Things are growing
March 11, 2021
Many things in the garden made it through the winter.
Got some garden work done this week!
The violas, strawberries, and parsley all survived the winter and look pretty damn good.
The chamomile re-seeded itself EVERYWHERE, so a lot of time was spent either pulling, composting, or transplanting it. I let one of last year’s kale plants flower (mild winter = kale kept growing, is only now bolting) so hopefully I’ll have some seeds soon.
Planted early crops of romaine lettuce, butter lettuce, and spinach earlier in the year. The past few weeks they’ve been growing like champs and are ENORMOUS and delicious.
This week I transplanted seedlings to the main garden and container garden. Main has beefsteak tomatoes, vine cucumbers, and bell peppers. Containers have cherry tomatoes, bush cucumbers, and various herbs/greens.
New this year are onions and carrots!
