Put to Bed Just in Time

As I finished up my winter yard work the snow started to fall again.
Looks like I got everything done just in time.

Insulated with straw, Ms. Parsley will winter over in her plastic pot nestled in an old dilapidated oak barrel.

The S.S. Sidedish has been mostly cleaned out and docked for the season.

Packed in the straw under an old window still grows mixed lettuces and spinach. See the milk jug buried in the background? It has holes through out the sides and that's how I water them without weighing down their little leaves with heavy wet droplets.

New pine needles and scrub oak leaves on the path to the shed.
It keeps the ground from getting all muddy when we shovel away the snow.
(We need access the shed through out the winter.)

The last of the goodies for the year.
