Believe it or not, spring is around the corner. It has been very dry in NorCal so far – sometimes we get Spring rain, so still TBD. LOTS of prep to do for the upcoming season.

It is time to plant:

  • Broccoli
  • Cabbage
  • Carrots
  • Cauliflower
  • Collards, swiss chard
  • Kale
  • Leeks
  • Loose leaf lettuce
  • Peas
  • Potatoes….late in the month

Chores include:

  • Sow tomatoes inside
  • Start flowers (sunflowers, strawflower, zinnias, etc)
  • Direct sow sweet peas
  • Plant bare-root (roses, fruit trees, asparagus, strawberries, rhubarb, berries)
  • Spray fruit trees
  • Fertilize
  • Compost
  • Clean up, cut back
  • Prune roses, fruit trees
