Seattle spring

Sometimes it’s hard to know when it’s spring here. It officially arrives tomorrow, but often by now I’m feeling it. Not this year, with the exception of a couple of days awhile back. My daughter is basking in warm weather across the country in Maine, and we’re bundled up. Usually we’re way ahead of Maine this time of year, although I’m betting that we’ll see a reversal of their weather and ours before too long. Many of our plant starts at school are ready to go, however. I did a book signing of Our School Garden! at the Seattle Tilth March Edible Plant Sale on Saturday and watched lots of people come by and buy plant starts even though it was 38 degrees out at the time. Better weather must be just around the corner!
