Garden Lights

Hello, My Friends!~~~

Recently my clever wood working hubby built cold frames for our garden! He used storm windows taken directly from two of the bedroom windows. We are getting new wondows in the house mid-March. He used the windows as inspiration and scale for our cold frames.

I planted leafy things like spinach, mache, Italian dandelion, and lettuces.

Hubby attached handles and hooks to each of the three "lights" (I learned that's what the glass part of the cold frame is called) and attched chains to the fence so we could raise the lights as high as we need for venting. The lights can also go all the way up when warm nights don't require them any more.

The fencing around the cold frames is to keep our dog from jumping on them. That would be a bad thing as the lights are glass.

So far one of the varieties of spinach and the Italian dandelion is up but way to small to photograph for you.

Next week our new greenhouse arrives! I am so excied!~~~XXOO, Beth
