Yes, it's snowing, but it's time to start gardening!

Like many of you, I've been blanketed in feet of snow and ice for the past several weeks and have been craving for some warm weather where I can work outside. And then this morning I was watching P. Allen Smith's Garden Home on PBS and P. Allen Smith gently kicked my butt into gear and reminded me that now is the PERFECT time to start preparing seedlings for spring planting! As an amateur gardener, I sometimes struggle with which seedlings to plant first and which ones can withstand a bit of cold weather. Smith provides a great guide for which seedlings to plant when:
What to Plant in Your Spring Garden.

Be sure to check your frost zones before deciding when to put seedlings into the ground.
