I got a really good idea from the book I am reading for the Co-op Book Club (The Feast Nearby) last evening. It concerned the use of hoop houses in the garden for early planting and getting some veggies earlier than waiting for the regular weather. I already use hoop house for the tomatoes, but I am not sure why I didn't think about using it for earlier planting. I am planning to get some more PVC pipe this weekend and set up another one so I am able to warm up the soil in one of my raised beds and get some things started REALLY early!
this is the story of our life at "Rosevale on the Palouse Prairie" in eastern Washington State, and my love affair with all things fiber/fabric. 'BeanQueen' you might ask, well in my previous life I was the curator of the Phaseolus Germplasm Collection (beans native to the western hemisphere) in the United States. My lovely #2 sister gifted me with my 'autre nom'.

Oh! I love the bear! BTW, how is your mother coming with her bear?
Hoop house? I'll have to look into that. I have raised beds at the farmhouse.
