Renewal

    Judging by the facebook posts from friends and relatives it would seem a good Easter and Passover were had by all and sundry.  The weather in the North Country and the northeast generally was good to excellent and conducive to outdoor activities, despite wetness from the Friday night deluge.  I was able to clean off the asparagus bed in the Secret Garden and apply a much needed dose of compost.
    The variability of the weather so far this spring has been depressing to this erstwhile farmer.  Instead of a gradual warm up we have cycled from cold to freezing and back several times this month.  April in this area is on its way to one of the coldest in recent memory.  Here's hoping May will make up for it and set growers and gardeners alike on a more normal path.
