All this white stuff...

Green has been far from my mind. We've been bombarded by snow storms this last week - losing our cable (therefore no internet) and electric. Now that I am back on line, I find that gardening has been far from my mind. I am not complaining mind! I love the snow! We haven't had snow accumulations like this in ages!

In this storm several of my lovely holly trees snapped off under the weight of the snow, as have a few of my fuller cedars; it has been rather depressing. One bright spot though, my hoop house is still in one piece! How the veggies underneath are doing remains to be seen! I cannot get the garden gate open with two feet of snow surrounding it, and as I have yet to dig out my car and I need to go grocery shopping...

So today's blog is going to just be a few photos.

Hoop House - half way through first storm - Still standing!

I should be starting my seeds soon... Until then - Keep warm & dream green!

  1. So sorry about your trees snapping off. You have sure been slammed with the snow. We have about twenty inches on the ground and that is way too much for me. Spring will be so welcome for many this year.

  2. My sister lives in NJ too and she's had it with the snow. You guys definitely deserve a break.
