Gardeners can experience warm, inviting days alternating with blowing rain, chill, and even sleet.
But the increased light and warmth available to plants cause buds to move to blooms, and small leaves to expand. Garden tasks this month can be enjoyed with the smells, sounds, and warmth of spring around the gardener. Get the vegetable garden going. Check the soil conditions, and don't dig or till if the garden soil is still soggy or saturated. But if it's well-drained and workable, get early crops in.
