This morning, I woke up and was thinking about the spring onions I needed for a quiche I had planned to make. It was pouring rain outside. I put on my NZ muck boots, a heavy robe, got an umbrella, walked through our hugely soupy/muddy backyard, past the chicken coop where the hens were still asleep, and yanked out these onions. It was so darn satisfying. I had planted 200 onion sets in a raised bed back in the fall (10/28/21). I’ve been pulling from the crop all winter. Even with two snow storms and freezing weather the plants are thriving. I’m amazed; I never even covered them! Anyway, they cleaned up well. I picked kale for the quiche while I was out there. It is thriving, uncovered, as well. #wintergardening #satisfactionguaranteed #whywedoit #kitchengarden #backyardfarming Recipe link for bacon and kale quiche in profile.
