Spider Web Gardens
Growers of Fine Quality Plants since 1937
Mid May 2008
Our little Garden Shop (above picture taken in early March) was quite buried! It's nice to see the trees leafing out and the green grass after such a long winter. Spring came quickly and the time to plant is upon us. The old saying to plant corn when the oak leaves are the size of a squirrels ear seems to be a good indicator. The plants know when to do their thing.
We have been busy planting all Spring and have now expanded into the cold frames. These plants are hardened off and are ready to go. We have six packs and twelve packs of annuals and vegetable starts.
We are now well stocked with bagged and bulk soils, composts and bark mulch. Seed potatoes and onion sets as well as seeds are in.
May 17, May 24 and May 31 from 10 AM until 1 PM Spider Web will be hosting a program launched by the UNH Cooperative Extension called 'Ask a Master Gardener' The Master Gardener program has been around for quite a while, this new approach allows homeowners to bring their questions and have them answered in person. Several other Garden Centers in NH will be participating in this program as well. Bring those questions!
Our selection is enormous, come visit!
Owner Bill Stockman recently received the NH Farm Bureau Profile award, this award is given annually to a person or persons for distinguished service to agriculture and rural life.
