I would recommend a gardening calendar. If you are in NE Florida, the Times Union puts one out every January. Here is a link to this year's <a href="http://jacksonville.com/lifestyles/home_and_garden/2010-01-03/story/2010_gardening_calendar_get_growing_with_our_annual_guid" rel="nofollow">2010 Gardening Calendar</a>. I am all gung-ho too but funny how my failures correspond to things that should not be planted now. Good luck!Carol@KeepingUpWithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07871321912848663903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19605599216403146.post-90956260325642738572010-08-25T17:31:45.654-04:002010-08-25T17:31:45.654-04:00Hey Tom, Thanks for the comments on my post Chick...Hey Tom, Thanks for the comments on my post <a href="http://keepingupwithcarol.blogspot.com/2010/08/chickens-eggs-and-industrial-farming.html" rel="nofollow">Chickens, Eggs and Industrial Farming</a>! I think you should definitely start thinking now about those chickens. We got ours in February when we could keep them in the garage during cold weather. By March, they were in our NE Florida yard in their tractor. They will be a huge help in your garden. Make a tractor (which can be moved) and keep them over your fallow beds. They will enrich the soil and remove ALL pests and unwanted seeds. Talk to that wife of yours! They will cost you $1-2 each as little chicks. She will love them, I bet.Carol@KeepingUpWithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07871321912848663903noreply@blogger.com
