Signs of spring

Despite the desolate look of the whole yard right now, I have found the odd little sign of spring. The tulips are sprouting, the grass has the tiniest little green shoots and all of the snow is finally gone.
Today was the traditional easter egg hunt, and I happened to spot these tiny little hints of life.

I also planted garlic in my square foot garden. It took 3 squares to get it all planted and that is just a fraction of the garlic we consume in a season. I think I am going to need a new more raised beds to even accommodate all the foods we like.

By the way, if anyone actually wonders about the titla of this blog, my yard is so rocky that everything has to be planted in the raised beds. Get it? Dig up? Haha, yeah, it's awful.
