Spring has sprung with enthusiasm.
With temperatures in the high 70s and low 80s, it seems hard to believe that there could still be a freeze over the next couple of weeks, but according to University of Tennessee Extension agent Tom Stebbins, there is still a 50 percent chance of frost before April 15.
Therefore, waiting a few more weeks before getting those plants in the ground might be the wisest course of action. In the meantime, however, there are things to do to get the garden ready.
“If you already have a garden, we’re doing a lot of ground prep around here,” said Joel Houser, executive director at Crabtree Farms.
This weekend, Crabtree is hosting a Ready To Garden workshop. Houser shared some tips on how to prepare a garden ahead of time.
