GREEN THUMB

This past week we had big weather changes. One day it was 70 degrees - almost shirt sleeve weather - and the next day temp in the teens with snow flurries. This reminds us of a contest in earlier years (in the 1940s I think) where the winner got a new (for then) car for submitting the winning slogan - Minnesota, Theater of Seasons.

We sure had a good example this past week. I declare we got through two acts on the theater. Now March has started. From past years March has been the worst Winter month of the year - frequently with weekly snowstorms. Sometimes the coldest weather, and always weather news We shall see what happens this year. In the meantime make further plans for your gardening and yard work for this year. We will mention one local merchant has seeds available for 10c a package. These are leftover seeds from last year (usually), but they are available as needed for spares.

And, also be sure to greet your house plants too while watering. Until next week.
