Spring is here, and the second incarnation of the Attwood Family Garden(TM) is upon us. This year we are trying hard not to over-plant, although we did end up with lots of potatoes last year. Also off this year’s list are radishes, done so because the homegrown ones have quite a bite. Instead we are trying golden beets, and contrary to my oft stated belief that they are just coloured mud, I am looking forward to trying them roasted under the broiler. The other exciting vegetable is corn… providing we can keep the raccoons out, it should be interesting. Finally we have prepared more for our potatoes this year by leaving a small mound of dirt on either side to earth up the plants and hopefully give us a bigger crop with fewer individual plants.
