Despite the cool temperatures and limited sunlight, the Bay View garden is thriving. The Bay View garden staff and interns have been busy preparing the winter garden and even getting things ready for spring. We trimmed back the fruit trees, planted the cover crop and planted carrots, beets and lettuce. The latest warm spell brought blooms to our big plum tree and we saw our first blooms on the stock flowers and bachelor buttons. Last week we sowed over 40 sweet pea plants and are eagerly awaiting their first flowers and wonderful fragrance.
