As we often discuss, we generally use a &#8220;safe and smart&#8221; sowing and transplanting strategy for our cold climate. We&#8217;ll transplant superbly cold hardy plants this early, typically starting with [&#8230;]]]></description>

This work begins with clearing the previous season&#8217;s detritus, giving us another early season ingredient for our compost piles.
