We appreciate so much the enthusiasm of Ben with Growveg. Here he exhorts us ”its time to wake up  the first salads of the season”. He starts with lettuce, a cool weather germinator and follows with spinach. Imagine the ecstasy of harvesting your first spinach leaves in early Spring. Then there are Jerusalem artichokes. Now is the time to plant them for a harvest of these delicious tubers next Autumn. Also be sure to plant snap peas, these are edible podded so you can toss them right into your salads.

Our delight, brothers and sisters, to share with you.

Please accept our best wishes for good health and vitality to you and family,
