Seed Catalogs

My seed catalogs finally arrived! There was a delay due to the fact that we moved this past year, so I had to re-request them. Is there anything more fun than pouring through the catalogs and dreaming of luscious gardens filled with ripening vegetables?

As this is our first year here and being that there is no established garden, I'm more inclined to put a container garden in. This will give me a better idea of where the sunlight falls, how near the water supply is, and allow me to establish time for a compost bin. The only drawback to this plan is not having any seasoned compost or soil to start with, so we may have to bite the bullet and purchased some good composted loam (organic, I hope) for starters.

It may be sub-zero out with the windchill factor and the ground may be covered with snow, but I'm ready to start my seedlings a.s.a.p. More on that another time...
