Lavender2, the spinach is well worth it. If you get a winter thaw try digging and planting really early, like in February, and then cover with mulch. We had a couple of mild winters and my spinach overwintered and survived AND some seeds sprouted, so for 2011 and 2012 we ate spinach for over 3 months before they bolted. Did you know that spinach has almost as much protein as meat?
Thanks for the encouragement! ME, plant in February ... oh that would be a crazy dream. Well, we did have one year with little snow and the ground thawed a bit in March. I hope to get some going early in planter boxes in my three season porch, moving to the deck when it warms up. I'm trying to get DH to eat more greens.
