What are the signs of spring that you cherish? The first crocus, narcissus, and daffodils poking up through the unraked duft? Fresh bear tracks in the mud? The return of the wrens and barn swallows? I cherish the garlic plants as they begin to grow, no matter how cold spring is, they persevere, so hopeful. Only two more month until garlic scape pesto!
