Snap Peas and Tiny Fruits – April 22, 2019
Plants are growing at a very fast pace right now. I finally have some sugar snap peas to harvest, but just a handful so far. And 2 strawberries! They were delicious. Aiden raced me out to the garden to pick snap peas, he loves them!

Everything Survived the 17 Degree Low Temperature
All of the vegetable plants made it through the recent low temperatures. This morning just before sunup, it got down to 17.6 degrees F. I didn’t cover anything up, and the plants look like they are all OK this morning. I was most worried about the sugar snap peas that just started popping up from the ground, but they look completely unharmed. Strawberries look completely unharmed. Onions look OK. Brussels and broccoli did get some damage, but they should survive.
