First strawberry blossoms of the season! ✨🌱
It's by far the busiest time of year at Seattle Urban Farm Co., so over the past few weeks I haven't been out in my own garden as much as I'd like. Last time I really looked at my strawberries they were still small stubs, just beginning to send out new foliage. Now, what seems like just a few days later (but is probably more like a week 😊), they're flowering! I have a feeling this year's going to fly by! πŸ“
Classic spring garden: camellia blossoms on the ground and salad greens in the beds! 🌱🌸
Chives grow up so fast! I swear, you cut them back one day and then you blink and they're flowering again! ☺️
