My garden is in for the year.  The new thing this year is raspberry bushes, four of them along the back fence. We'll see how they do.  It's still so cold - even this week, supposedly past the frost-free date (Mother's Day) we had morning temps of forty degrees, which could easily have been overnight frosts.  The peas are already coming up.   I have six cucumber plants - I'm hoping to learn how to make pickles this summer.  The kids had a great time digging for worms and helping me plant the seeds and seedlings.  We're all looking forward to the growth.
