Hi Bill, my Broc started to freeze and died, but my cabbage, kale, spinach and arugula survived all winter. Our greenhouse is basically a reclaimed frame with plastic positioned over a 24 X 16 ft. raised bed...not heated at all.

Aubree, I will be interested to here how your broccolil and cabbage do through the winter ours lived last year but quickly bolted when the weather warmed and I pulled it. Is your greenhouse heated in any way?

I have some cabbages growing slowly, broccoli, chard, spinach, lettuce, radishes and arugula growing in my little greenhouse. Getting ready to plant new crops very soon.

Good news everyone. I still have cabbage growing out in the open air using it for winter chicken forage. Unfortunately they have developed a taste for the Garlic tops as well.

A great place to promote WFN as well as our other products and services is this great viral blogging network. It also provides products within itself for us to make extra money to forward our cause. www.EzSteps.Info

I made money the first day, and so can you.

My greens and spinach are still going strong in the greenhouse too!

Have you been digging jeruslium Artichokes all winter?  Ours have worked out well and I finially figured ut how to cook them that Carolyn and I both like. Cut thin and Deep Fried.  With the mild winter our lettuce and spinach has done better than ever and I think it will go all winter.  What do you have growing this winter?

Springfield Area Herb Society will be having a "Plant & Seed Swap" at their monthly meeting in February (3rd Tues of the month @ 6 pm)

I would also like to know if a seed swap is in the future plans for 1,000 gardens project.

Aubree, are you going to organize a winter seed swap this year? I'm sure there are many like me that have to much seed and are looking for something different. It was a lot of fun last year
