My own are much greener than I expect they should be this time of year, but then things haven't been all that cold yet.<br /><br />Matt H.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-37902727791172220922014-12-30T04:12:36.501-05:002014-12-30T04:12:36.501-05:00ditto... ditto...

Barb, I so agree. Too often ...Mama Pea, thank you!<br /><br />Barb, I so agree. Too often we get hung up on all the loose ends that need tying!<br /><br />In spite of our ordinarily mild winters, winter crops and pasture are things for which there are no guarantees. Some years it's too cold and everything goes dormant! But I still try because most of the time it pays off. <br /><br />PioneerPreppy, thanks! I've not tried alfalfa yet because it isn't supposed to grow well here. But I'd love to add some to our homegrown hay.<br /><br />Harry thanks! Eventually the hard work begins to bear fruit. :)<br /><br />Nancy, isn't it lovely this time of year. Unless we get a really frigid spell, then it will stay green all through the winter.<br /><br />Sandy, that's an excellent way to look at it!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-5646196671166967592014-12-28T12:28:29.827-05:002014-12-28T12:28:29.827-05:00Leigh,

As for a winter garden small is good, you had plenty to keep you busy during the fall and winter. Before you know it Spring will be here....so will your large vegetable garden. Enjoy the brief gardening break.<br />Happy New Year to you and Dan.<br />Hugs,<br />SandySandy Livesayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183449816586125720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-85144231273506747162014-12-28T12:12:33.466-05:002014-12-28T12:12:33.466-05:00It looks so green!It looks so green!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00576053785355324560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-6830185403612902402014-12-28T10:54:19.549-05:002014-12-28T10:54:19.549-05:00I'm glad things are going well there.

I often don't do it when I should. I am envious of winter growth. We have had unseasonably warm weather and I should have seeded while most of the birds are away. Woulda-shoulda-coulda. Oh well. This is an ongoing process as you remind us.
