Strange and unusual weather patterns persist here in zone 4. I am usually writing about spring planting and how it’s safe to start your gardens because frost is less likely to occur. That is a far cry from what is currently taking place here in zone 4. The low temperatures and winter like conditions have bought spring planting to a halt. This isn’t the first time and certainly won’t be the last that Mother Nature has thrown us a curve ball. I’ve learned over time that my growing seasons are short and sweet and to enjoy the highs and lows that the seasons bring. Happy planting! Cheers
