winter gardening


Well our winter storm has come for 2008.  This year they are calling it Arctic Blast 2008.  I love the news coverage we get in Oregon.  I have been busy covering all the plants I do not want to lose.  Moving plants into the garage and greenhouse and covering the worm bin with a blanket.  We made sure the chickens' combs and waddles were covered with bag balm today.  I made sure my neighbor Natasha's hardy fuschias were covered.  Don't forget to take care of those wild birds as well.  Give them water and seed.  There are things to do in the garden every month of the year in the PNW.  The picture here are some birds my dad captured in there yard in front of their Forest Pansy.

Thanks for giving us winter gardening tips! I never seem to know what to do in the winter. Now, I'm excited to procure some rain boots and get to work!
