Went out into the yard today and discovered "Minors lettace" coming up. It is time for natures salad.
They are tiny right now, and don't look to be getting very big this year. Probably too much rain.
So I carefully picked some (always leave some for reseeding in several areas) along with beet tops, spinach, new fennel sprigs, lemmon balm, cabbage leaves, mint, wild onions, chard, kale and had a great salad.
Dandylions have not appeard yet. It is important to allow a large variety of leafy plants to go to seed for early spring greens. Deep greens are an important part of a daily diet.
I plan on tending several green gardens in the meadow. Hope to get a good gurrilla garden system going.
Have any of you had success with gurrilla gardening? What was your system and how is it coming along?
