Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams go,
Life is a barren field,
Frozen in snow.
--Langston Hughes

Looking back on 2010



Most of January and February looked like this in the Mid-Atlantic region. Thank you, son, for shovelling.











Raised beds ready to go. Just waiting for warmer weather.














Rhubarb.














A row of beets growing between turnip greens. Peas growing up the trellis.








Sugar snap peas.













Red zebra tomatoes suffered greatly from the hot, dry weather that followed.












Potatoes.













Beets.











Okra. So good raw, it rarely made it to the kitchen.












Collard seedlings planted between okra.













Swiss chard and collards.














Collards, kale and chrysanthemums.


Snow on collards on Thanksgiving Day.












Turnips before the deep freeze.
