Yesterday the puggle princess and I spent some time in the garden harvesting a few vegetables for this week’s dinner recipes.
Winter carrots. So sweet and 10 million times better than store bought.
I need to hide a chewy stick for Lucy to find.
Winter potato patch. 
I have a feeling we won’t be buying store bought beets anytime soon.
Our late January harvest. Not too shabby if you ask me.
How about YOU? What are you harvesting these days?

Mary says
Oh my goodness!! Yum!
Have you had a freeze yet?
I have cabbage in the garden bed but not sure it’s going to survive!
Mavis Butterfield says
Yes, about a few weeks ago. Our cabbage is a total goner. 🙁
Patty says
Good morning Mavis,
I LOVE your January harvest!! I tried my first time to grow a few winter veggies that didn’t make it so well. I had planted radish, lettuce and kale. It didn’t turn out so well. I need to learn when I can plant which veggies at what times of year so that I can harvest each season. You have inspired me 🙂 This is my 2nd year of learning to garden .
Your veggies look so big and healthy.
We have a very small yard…small! We live in the Quadrant homes by Costco in GH. My husband helped me put in 4 planter boxes 2 years ago that I have been using with some success. However they are bare right now and I am thinking about planting for spring. Trying to figure out when the last “frost date” will be for planting seedlings. Do you start your seeds indoors for the cool weather?
Love your webpage 😉 Thank you
Patty from the NW
Mavis Butterfield says
The last frost day around here is usually April 15th. I like to start most of my seedlings indoors in Feb and March. I’ll be posting about what I’m planting in real time so be sure and follow along. 🙂
Stacey says
Lucy is the cutest thing ever. So earnest. Did you ever find out why she was huddling in a corner not long ago?
Mavis Butterfield says
Nope. I do think it’s her way of telling me to log off for the day though. 😉
Mavis Butterfield says
No, but she visited the naughty corner once last week in the late afternoon while I was sitting at my desk. I really think it might be her signal for me to get off the computer and play with her.
Kara says
Well jel.
Linda says
That is a nice bunch of vegetables. I am very jealous as we have frozen ground. Havev been checking out seed catalogs.
Amy says
I live in Oregon’s very wet Willamette Valley, and our last frost day is May 15. We’ve had some crazy warm weather the last few weeks so I decided to plant my peas last week in whiskey barrels. I usually wait until late February or March to plant, but I just couldn’t resist. Hopefully they’ll make it.
