I know I'm not the only one who's itching to get some seeds started. Heck, I might start some this weekend just to keep myself out of trouble even though it's a bit early.
Want to grow some beautiful, useful stuff this Spring? No problem. I've got your back. I'm not afraid to try things beyond my gardening ability, but there are some things you just CAN'T screw up around here.
Love to garden and meet others who share your passion? Come to the Bozeman Public Library on Saturday April 1st starting at noon for the 2nd annual Seed Swap. But there's so much more than just a seed swap!
Spring has official begun and Cardinal Climbers starts are doing well in a sunny living room window. Bozeman's never ending struggle of trying to balance a short growing season and starting things too soon inside is a fun challenge for me.
As we've discussed, I know it's really too early to be starting anything but winter is getting the best of me and planting seeds keeps me out of trouble. Here's what we've got so far:
It never fails. As soon as winter begins, I start daydreaming about gardens blooming and pots full of fragrant herbs on the front porch. However, we've got a ways to go before seeds should even be started. Didn't stop me from ordering a bunch of seeds for the upcoming season though!
The Winter Farmer's Market is a really nice place to shop for locally raised and locally made items. We've got plenty more dates to enjoy in 2017 at The Emerson.
It's City of Bozeman leaf pickup time! A race against Mother Nature's wrath, hoping they'll get to you before a big snow dump. We've got the leaf pickup instructions and a full schedule for 2016 right here.
I love being outside planting things, maintaining the lawn and enjoying flowers bloom all Spring and Summer. Come Fall, however, it's time to put things to bed and it isn't nearly as much fun. Unless you cheat, every single year.

It's funny how every year is completely different. Some years I have giant sunflowers. This year I have 2 that are no taller than 18 inches. This year had to be kept simple because of gardening time restraints.
Every once in a while I'll spot electric mowers around town but the vast majority of lawn maintenance in Bozeman seems to be done with gas powered lawn mowers.
