Started making a delicious salad dressing that uses an ungodly amount of fresh herbs. Tired of spending $10 every week at the grocery I decided to grow them all this year. Too early for starts at the Lowe's, so I set up some seed trays and soil tonight
 
Basil, Rosemary, organic sweetie cherry tomatoes, Bodacious tomato, 4th of July tomato, chili pepper, Thai pepper, jalapeno, hot lemon pepper, all started today.
I still need to get seeds for the other starts, but at least some is done.

I guess you’d call this the start of progress. My wife wanted some raised garden beds in the back yard of the new house we’re building. Landscaper wanted an arm and a leg, so I decided to DIY. Even though it was still pricey, I got a deal on cedar I couldn’t pass up. I forgot how heavy lumber is so after three 8-10 hour days I’m look forward to a little R&R.

You need to ask the friends in town for help on projects like that ;)
 
My indoor seed starts didn't get enough light and I don't have space for a grow light. So i put in some work on the flower bed and containers (dumped everything out, added fertilizer, compost, and coffee grounds). I got some cold tolerant seeds in the ground, like radishes, onions, snap peas, lettuces, and parsley. Last frost date is around April 15th here, so I'm holding off on the rest of the veggie and herb seeds for now

Were not until the 2nd week of May!
 
I got some more seeds started tonight.
Thyme, Oregano, more peppers and tomatoes.
I don't have high hopes for the peppers as they are 2 years old and went through the dehydrator, but hopefully some will start as they were my favorite.
Time will tell
