It’s January, the beginning of a new year (finally!). Time to make New Year’s resolutions, fill out 2021 planners, and start thinking ahead. In fact, when it comes to gardening, it’s time to start thinking very, very far ahead. We know it seems much too cold outside right now to be considered Spring, but nonetheless, the Spring planting season is upon us. 
But what plants would survive the weather right now? Believe it or not, there are actually plenty of species that like to get their roots established before they poke their heads out of the ground come the warmer weather.

23   Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 
24   since you know that you will receive an inheritance  from the Lord as a reward.  It is the Lord Christ you are serving. 
​ Colossians 3:23-24
