Winter Garden Update

It's December 1, its snowing steadily and my garden is STILL going strong!  I harvested a handful of rainbow chard and an absolute armful of Italian flatleaf parsley :)  There's an assortment of herbs, about a dozen each of rainbow chard and broccoli plants still growing, even the Bacopa ground cover is surprisingly still thick and covered in flowers!  I love this place - its so much better than battling Zone 3 and shallow soil over the Canadian Shield in Thunder Bay haha.  Even with flurries collecting on the ground and beads of slush freezing to the leaves these plants still seem to persist.  I feel truly blessed to be heading into my 8th month of harvesting food from this garden.
