We have peas! Okay only five pods so far but that is double what we had this time last year. First set of onions are coming due next week I am guessing.

How is everyone else doing so far this year?

off to a great start here as well. My herbs overwintered really well, inspite of being buried under 3' of snow for a while. I have oregano, thyme, rosemary, lavender, chives, mint, parsley, cilantro, all came back or self-sowed really well! My lettuce/salad mix is off to a great start. Asparagus is back. Kale & cabbage off to a good start. Tomatoes and peppers in and growing, squash, potatoes both thriving. Onions in and growing, basil in and growing. Raspberries and blueberries back this year. Peas pretty much picked out now. All is well here!!!! GOOD YEAR so far!

:D oh I just sowed my peas a couple of weeks ago - it's so darn cold up here in the north!

O gosh. I'm so sorry that happened:( Try companion planting your broccoli with Nasturtiums and marigolds as well as aromatic herbs like rosemary, dill or sage.
