The collards, kale and spinach have been fantastic in this mild winter. The collards, touched by frost, are sweet and tender; the spinach just keeps growing. And I haven't even yet harvested much chard or beet greens, as of yet. I hopefully put some broccoli transplants in -- it'll probably be too warm this spring for them. But I'll also put some sugar snap peas in -- after the rain in the next couple of days. Peas are always a crop that "hope" is a factor.

The collards and kale are starting to bolt, so I'm harvesting them, we're cooking and eating them, and some of the harvest is going to the freezer. They're delicious.
