Herbs and Veggies
As the weather warms our minds turn to gardening. When considering your garden plan, ensure you rotate areas you plant being mindful of plant families (brassicas, alliums and nightshades) to ensure healthy conditions. Planting the same crop in the same area will deplete key nutrients leading to disease and poor crop production.
With the anticipation of spring, it's time to consider crops that can handle the varied weather. The following vegetables and herbs are crops that don't mind a little chill. In February, arugula, asparagus, cabbage, broad beans, corn salad, mustard, onions, and others cool-season plants can be transplanted into garden beds. In addition, it is also a good time to sow peas, onions, radishes, and spinach. The Seattle Tilth suggests starting seeds indoors like lettuce, broccoli or chard for transplanting in April.
