Started spring planting

Today it felt really like spring, although it is not even the end of February yet. We should have gone skiing, but had to do something about fixing the drive before it collapses trapping us in the house for EVER. A couple of days ago we set off to go skiing, but the road was closed as they were clearing avalanches so we came back and did useful things including getting some plants started ready to go in the potager in a couple of months when it is warmer and we have built the raised beds. We planted onion, garlic and a couple of peas. We will do many more of each of these eventually, but we only had that many pots. Plus it is possibly a bit early as we don't have a green house or cold frame yet.

We haven't been skiing as often as we would like recently what with the road being blocked, going to funerals and having to do useful things like mend the drive but it is good to get things done too.
