We are south of the snow line with unseasonably warm weather. Some of the trees are beginning to bud 4 weeks ahead of schedule. My garlic is up and I planted onions because the soil is completely thawed. In the unheated greenhouse are spinach and other greens.
Some tomatoes, like Rancho Solito, are showing clusters of buds so I will need to move them out to the greenhouse and then fire up the big wood stove.
The tomatoes will be in the field by the end of March in walls of water. I would be surprised to get any apples or peaches this year. They get tricked into blossoming and then fall to a late freeze. Darn it!
