Grow It Eat It Goals
Erica's article below got me excited. Garden planning is a fun winter activity. I encourage everyone to set goals to change or expand your garden this year. Perhaps you can add a couple of more pots to your condo terrace. Or expand your garden another 100 square feet. Plant some new vegetables or fruits. Or put up some trellises. Improve your irrigation. Or build a hoop house to extend your seasons.
Look over the seed catalogs. Place your orders. Establish your time-lines. Dream and do.

Here are my goals for expanding my garden this year:
- 5 Triple Crown blackberry bushes
- 5 Caroline raspberry bushes
- 5 Josephine raspberry bushes
- 25 Jewel strawberry plants
- 3 McDonald Rhubarb plants
- 4 new garden trellises http://groweat.blogspot.com/2009/08/super-duty-trellis-we-are-tired-of.html
Gardening requires strategic planning. Those berries will be in for years so I better plant them in the best location. I must also patiently wait a year for them to start producing. I love staring out my den window in January at my dead garden and making my big plans.
