I'm Feeling the Spring Itch!

It's that time of year again when I start to pull out all my vegetable, flower, and herb seeds. The other day I had the entire table covered in seeds, diagrams, and supplies. I realized that I was behind in starting some of my seeds indoors. So, I pulled out my starter pots (made locally), and began getting my fingers covered in dirt. Oh, the feeling of dirt between my fingers.  It is such a rush that helps satisfy my Spring itch to dig in the soil. The excitement of planting seeds, and waiting for the final moment when I can start harvesting the joyous bounty. It's exciting to walk into the local hardware stores, while seed packets, dirt, manure are becoming more abundant. Some people get the rush of shoe shopping, I get the rush of seeds, dirt, and the excitement of eating fresh vegetables and herbs out of the garden. Happy planting to all!
