Tanny, Ella and I went down to Seedy Saturday and picked up this year’s crop of veggies. Seedy Saturday was held at the Wychwood Barns this year and it was PACKED!
Our haul for 2009:
- Tomatoes: Yellow Cherry, Beefsteak, Ruffled Red
- Pepper: Lipstick Sweet Red
- Herbs: Italian Large Leaf Basil, Thyme, Italian Parsely, Cilantro
- Misc: Sugar Snap peas, Brittle wax beans, Scarlet Nantes carrots
- Garlic: six varieties!
Making a return to the garden from last year:
- Tomatoes: Blanche Beauty, Black Cherry
- Sweet Basil
- Midget Golden Watermelon
This weekend we started all the tomatoes, the basils, the thyme and the peppers. In a couple of weeks we’ll start the melons. The rest we’ll plant directly outdoors.
I’ve already started getting the yard ready for spring. I cleaned up the leaves and debris from our East and South yards (sounds bigger than they are) and some green flowers shoots are already peeking through! We had a nasty infestation of Viburnum leaf beetle that stripped both our snowball trees last year so I’ve been painstakingly pruning all the infected branches.
This year we’re going to convert one of our flower gardens into a vegetable garden since our current vegetable garden is really shaded. We’re also hoping to plant a second fruit tree (to replace a fallen tree) and some Veestar strawberries. It absolutely breaks our hearts to know that we have to clip the flowers from the strawberry plants the first year and won’t get strawberries until 2010!
If anyone has a recommendation for a native fruit tree that doesn’t suffer from neglect and insects but has a plentiful yield - please let us know!

Very inspiring! I’ve been dithering over my seed order, I usually get my tomatoes at Upper Canada Seeds but I was thinking of branching out this year. Hmmmmmmm.
